University life
and community

Who said that studying online means missing out on the social aspect of university life?

Who said that studying online makes you miss out on the social part of the university experience?

At .h we deeply value building and growing a strong community. We recognize that education is not just about knowledge, it is also about forging meaningful connections and fostering an environment of mutual support.

Our community is at the heart of what we do. It is a space where students, teachers, and education enthusiasts can connect, collaborate, and learn together. We value diversity of perspectives, a passion for learning, and a willingness to collaborate to achieve each other’s educational and personal goals.

The fact that we are an online university opens doors for us to connect with people from all over the world, who are curious and intellectually restless, and whom we would not have met otherwise.

Our metaverse

Meetings with people on the other side of the planet, but without jet lag.

At the heart of this experience is our virtual campus in the metaverse, Nubi. This space allows direct interaction between students, who move between the different rooms to attend different types of meetings thanks to its great flexibility and its adaptation to different needs. It is a space open 24/7 to all members of the .h Community.
