Hochschulrektorenkonferenz (HRK) is an ENQA Affiliate. The German Rectors’ Conference (HRK) is the association of state and state-recognised universities in Germany. The member institutions are represented in the HRK by their executive boards and rectorates. The HRK currently has 272 member institutions, at which around 90 per cent of all students in Germany are enrolled.
Due to this large membership, representing all types of higher education institution, the HRK functions as the voice of the universities in dialogue with politicians and the public and as the central forum for opinion-forming in the higher education sector.
The HRK deals with all issues relating to the role and tasks of higher education institutions in academia and society, especially teaching and learning, research, innovation and transfer, scientific further training, internationalisation, and university self-administration and governance.
