Friends of HsKA
The Verein der Freunde der Hochschule Karlsruhe e.V. (Friends of HsKA) was founded in 1953.
In order to facilitate the contact between graduates and their former faculty or study program, a number of "Freundeskreise" (faculty-level friends' associations) were founded.
The Verein der Freunde manages residence rooms for guest lecturers
