Get a taste of university life

"Campus on Tour" is making its second stop in Lübeck at the Hanse School of Business & Administration.

Business and engineering degrees are very popular on the job market. But what exactly do you learn during your studies? On June 16, around 80 pupils from the Hanseatic School of Business and Administration will receive valuable first-hand information and tips. This special kind of orientation aid starts with a taster lecture by a university professor. Afterwards, students from various East German universities will be available for discussions and answer questions about starting a degree course and their universities. The event is part of the "Campus on Tour" campaign, which is organized by the cross-state university marketing campaign "My Campus by Studying in the Far East".

Designing and modernizing buildings to be energy-efficient is becoming increasingly important these days. In his taster lecture, Professor Dr. Tino Schütte from the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences (HSZG) explains how building energy balances are drawn up and what the industrial engineering course

deals with. In doing so, he hopes to inspire the 80 or so pupils from the technical and vocational secondary school for technical and economic contexts and at the same time give them an insight into the

in the eastern German states. "The universities in eastern Germany offer very good study conditions. Students at the HSZG, for example, benefit from first-class educational opportunities, intensive support and modern facilities," says Professor Schütte. "Thanks to our good reputation and our intensive contacts with industry, our graduates usually find a job quickly after completing their studies."

Following the lecture, the students will have the opportunity to talk to Professor Schütte and students from two other universities in eastern Germany. In small groups or 1:1 discussions, they can find out all about choosing a degree course, starting their studies and student life. Campus specialists Johannes Herbrich (Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences), Maike Schneider (Ernst Moritz Arndt University of Greifswald) and René Komnick (Harz University of Applied Sciences) will also be present.

With the "Campus on Tour" campaign, the cross-state university marketing campaign "My Campus from Studying in the Far East" brings the attractive study programs offered by East German universities directly to West German schools. From mid-May to the beginning of July 2015, lecturers and student advisors from East German universities will be visiting twelve schools in Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg, Lower Saxony, Hesse and Bavaria. So that the pupils can also exchange ideas about studying and life in East Germany at eye level, so-called campus specialists will also be on site. These are student ambassadors from the East German universities.

About the campaign:

Since 2008, the cross-state higher education marketing campaign of the eastern German states - formerly the New Federal States Higher Education Initiative - has been drawing the attention of prospective students from western Germany to study opportunities in the eastern German states with the campaign "Studying in the Far East". Since 2013, the campaign has been continued under the title "My Campus of Studying in the Far East". It was launched by the science ministries of the states of Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia. The Saxony-Anhalt Ministry is responsible for coordination. The campaign is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
