The Healthpromotion and Sports Unit – the unit that stays moving and also moves you:

Since May 14, 2024, the Department of Sports has become the “Department of Health Promotion and Sports” (short: GuS). Our representative ensures that the mental effort in studying is balanced by physical activity and a healthy lifestyle.

As the department is still quite new in its current form, it will take the next few years to see how the potential for promoting health and sports in the students’ interest at the University of Leipzig is fully utilized. If you have any suggestions on how we can make the university healthier, feel free to send the department an email.

By the way, the Center of University Sports (Hochschulsport) offers great opportunities to become active in sports. With 150 different sports, there is definitely something for everyone. The program is available in special brochures, which are updated every semester on campus, and always available online.
