The Protestant University of Applied Sciences (EFH) Hannover had until 31 August 2007, an independent, church college sponsored by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Hanover with study programs in the social sector. It had three departments:

  • Social Pedagogy and Social Work
  • Religious Education (Diakonie and Church Services)
  • Healthcare

In the course of the restructuring of the higher education sector in the Federal Republic of Germany, it emerged in 1971 from two Christian schools: On the one hand, this was the Christian-Social Women's Seminar of the German-Evangelical Women's Association , which was founded in 1905 by Paula Müller-Otfried and Adelheid von Bennigsen . On the other hand, she took over the deacon training in 1974, which the Stephansstift operated in Hanover-Kleefeld since 1868. The founding rector was the theologian Paul Gerhard Jahn .

The Evangelical University of Applied Sciences Hanover had around 1,400 students in 13 courses in the areas of social affairs , religious education and diakonia , curative education , nursing and social management .

On September 1, 2007, the Protestant University of Applied Sciences became state sponsored and was affiliated to the Hanover University of Applied Sciences (since June 2010 University of Hanover , HsH) as Faculty V - Diakonie, Health and Social Affairs .
