Partnerships and sponsorships

Identity

The university can increasingly become an intellectual home - for a lifetime. A requirement in a short-lived time for this is to build long-term partnerships.

Zeppelin University (ZU) partnerships can actively accompany the university in the coming years on its way to becoming a vibrant place of excellence and responsibility for individuals and society.


As a foundation university, ZU is supported by the ZU Foundation and finances itself exclusively through donations and sponsoring, through tuition fees as well as competitively awarded third-party research funds and from income through academic services.


So far, numerous supporters have contributed to the development and expansion of ZU with donations and sponsorships.
