 In general, it is accessible only to officers and officer candidates of the Bundeswehr, the German federal armed forces. However, since it started teaching, there have been cooperation agreements with allied countries, on the basis of which a handful of selected officers from these states have been able to study in Hamburg.
-Since 2002 there has been a small number of civilian students at the university. A prerequisite for studying as a civilian at the Helmut Schmidt University is a business scholarship. These scholarships are usually awarded by foundations with close relationships to industry – thus, these students are at least indirectly being supported by their future employer, usually large companies. As of 2022 tuition costs are currently 2941 euros (humanities), 4403 euros (economics) or 3423 euros (engineering) per academic term.

 HSU primarily serves as an academic institution for the German Federal Armed Forces, with most students being military personnel. As a result, the university's focus is on equipping students with skills and knowledge that support their military careers rather than encouraging entrepreneurial pursuits. However, HSU recognizes the importance of innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E) and integrates these principles into various academic and extracurricular offerings.
-While there are few explicit I&E programs, several courses incorporate entrepreneurial thinking within broader subject areas such as Value Creation Systems, Digital Engineering, Product Development, and Logistics. The business administration course on Innovation and Network Management is particularly notable. Select experiential courses, like an Introduction to 3D printing, foster hands-on innovation. Inspiration and practical workshops offered by different actors in Hamburg are open to HSU students as well, such as initiatives like ''Startup to Go'', ''Founders' Table'', ''Lab 2 Market'', and ''Co-Founders Connect!'' Engagement-focused events such as ''Startup Camp'' and ''Female Entrepreneurship WEEK UP!'' encourage practical involvement.

 Communication channels such as the Startup Port and Innovation Hub newsletters provide students with updates on I&E opportunities. HSU also benefits from excellent infrastructure both at the university and in cooperation with other institutions in Hamburg, with facilities like HSU's central workshop, Open Lab Hamburg, and various departmental labs providing spaces for prototyping and innovation. Bachelor’s and master’s theses with practical components further enhance opportunities for students to engage in innovative projects.

-HSU places a strong emphasis on promoting I&E among its faculty, particularly PhD candidates, who are often civilians. HSU offers numerous programs and support structures to encourage faculty-led I&E initiatives. The University President’s Department for Transfer plays a central role, providing resources for intellectual property management, technology transfer, and cooperation management tailored specifically for HSU employees. External partnerships, such as with the Artificial Intelligence Center Hamburg (ARIC), further support faculty in pursuing cutting-edge innovations.
