About us
University sports are primarily viewed as an educational institution where students can gain important physical and movement experiences, build social connections, engage with other academic disciplines beyond the classroom, and ultimately find a physical balance to their daily academic life. The Sports Center offers events and courses in over 40 sports at reasonable prices for students and staff at the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. Special highlights include the winter camp in Austria, the rock-climbing camp in the Zittau Mountains, and the kitesurfing camp on the Baltic Sea.
Whether with or without a disability: Everyone is welcome here. Since sports are so diverse, we have something for everyone. Our counseling for students with disabilities aims to perfectly balance sports participation with personal limitations. Just talk to us—we’ll always find a solution.
Our responsibility is to offer University members the grassroots sports, exercise and fitness classes they are looking for. Additionally, we
- help them find long-term motivation and enjoyment in exercise and sports;
- help them develop and retain a healthy lifestyle;
- improve communication among all University members;
- are a place for learning and development in academic life; and
- play an integrating role within the social environment of our University.
