13.03.2024
IMAGINARY

Jessica (DeWanda Wise) is looking forward to a quiet and peaceful life in the suburbs when she moves back into her old childhood home with her new husband and two stepdaughters. Her youngest stepdaughter Alice (Pyper Braun) finds Jessica's old teddy bear Chauncey in the basement of the house, who becomes her constant companion. But Alice's bond with the cuddly toy takes on sinister proportions when Alice begins to do dangerous and painful things on Chauncey's behalf. At first, the adults can't find an explanation for the child's worrying behavior. Until Jessica begins to suspect that Chauncey is not the harmless cuddly toy she thought he was.

Housing for help - students support you in everyday life and pay less rent
Are you looking for a room, studying at a university in Karlsruhe or Pforzheim and are socially interested and committed?
Then "Wohnen für Hilfe" could be the right programme for you! Since 2008, the Paritätische Sozialdienste has been working with the Studierendenwerk in Karlsruhe to find accommodation for students. Instead of paying rent, students undertake to make everyday life easier for their accommodation providers. Only the incidental costs incurred are borne by the students.
We visited such a housing partnership at home for you and would like to give you an insight into a housing partnership at "Wohnen für Hilfe" with the following two videos: https://www.sw-ka.de/de/wohnen/wohnungssuche/wohnpartnerschaften/

Have fun watching!

100 years of the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe!

30.04.2023
The Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe turns 100 years old exactly today, on 30.04.2023!
The Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe was founded in April 1923 under the name "Karlsruher Studentendienst e.V.". Then, as now, it was our task to support students in all aspects of their studies. In the meantime, there are more than 300 employees who take care of the needs of currently more than 40,000 students in Karlsruhe and Pforzheim.
On the occasion of our 100th anniversary, we have compiled a chronicle here with a few impressions from 100 years of history for you.
We hope you enjoy our little journey through time into the past of the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe!

sw-ka.de in a new look!

13.06.2022
Our new website is live!

We are very happy finally to present you our completely reworked, technically renewed website in a modern and fresh look!

With a lot of love and work we have given our website a completely new look. From now on, the website is responsive, which means that the site visually adapts to all mobile devices. This means that our App UNIverse will be switched off in the future, as the functions of the app can now be mapped directly via the website!

The web address www.sw-ka.de remains the same, as well as your access data, if you have an account, for example to find a language tandem partner or to post an ad on our digital bulletin board and much more.

Have a look and browse through the new content!

We are looking forward to your feedback and hope that you like the new website as much as we do!

Umweltbewusster essen in unseren Mensen: Der Umwelt-Score

22.01.2022
Transparenz in Sachen Nachhaltigkeit

Ab sofort ist in den Speiseplänen des Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe ein Umwelt-Score angegeben. Er basiert auf der Eaternity-Datenbank (EDB) und gibt mit einer Sterne-Bewertung an, wie klimafreundlich die Speisen pro Gericht sind. Dieser Eaternity-Score ist die erste Auszeichnung für eine Zukunft mit klimafreundlichen Lebensmitteln weltweit und wird zusammen mit Partnern aus der Wissenschaft errechnet.

Legende zum Umwelt-Score
Der Score bildet in vier Bereichen die Klimabelastung ab. Zunächst wird in den Speiseplänen zu jedem Gericht ein Durchschnittsscore errechnet und angezeigt. Dieser errechnet sich aus den Bewertungen der vier Bereiche Klima, Wasser, Tierwohl und Regenwald, deren Bewertung in der Detailübersicht einzusehen ist.

Alle Infos und Hintergründe zur Berechnung des Umwelt-Score findest du unter:
