Come and join us
at Wismar University of Applied Sciences ...



... because we embrace diversity.

Wismar University of Applied Sciences is a place of free science, a place of education and a place of community. We live democracy and diversity every day: critical discourse, diverse perspectives, different opinions and mutual respect are the foundations for these values.


... because we have great laboratories.

Our faculty offers you numerous laboratories equipped with high-quality, state-of-the-art facilities. This is where theory is put into practice, as this is your space for research and experimentation. Our experienced lecturers are always on hand to offer you advice and support.



... because we know how to have fun!

Our lecturers aren’t just to be found in the lecture theatre or seminar room. They’ll jog alongside you in the campus run or get the party started as DJs when it’s time for 'Lecturers on the decks!' at the Block 17 student club.


... because we’re taking you along.

What can we learn from 3,500-year-old buildings in Athens? And what actually goes on at Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania’s only EMC testing laboratory? How are tunnels built? We’ve no idea. That’s why we’re taking you on a field trip to find out for ourselves.



… because with our help, you can bring your ideas to life.

Here, flashes of inspiration don’t have to fizzle out: from learning the basics of entrepreneurship and tinkering with prototypes in our StartUpYard, through idea competitions, to interdisciplinary teamwork designed to bring your own business ideas to market. The Robert Schmidt Institute supports you to help you realise your potential.


... because the beach is just round the corner.

Whether it’s a secluded natural beach or joining everyone else at the ice-cream shop and in beach chairs – Wismar Bay offers you both!



... because we're really sporty!

Diving or dancing, yoga or volleyball, weight training or Brazilian jiu-jitsu, basketball or Ultimate Frisbee – the choice is yours, and you’ll meet loads of great people along the way. With our wide range of sports on offer, you’re guaranteed to stay fit!


... because your children are welcome here!

Do you already have children, or are you starting a family whilst studying? Then just bring the little ones along. Wismar University of Applied Sciences’ Children’s University regularly offers exciting topics for young researchers. And if you ever need some short-term childcare, your children can play in the campus’s own ’Zwergenstube‘.



... because we know how to celebrate.

With us, you’ll always get a proper dose of music. 
Dance at CampusOpenAir until your legs give out, join in the fun at mountain festivals and freshers’ parties, and get the weekend off to a rocking start every Friday evening at the Block 17 student club.


... because Wismar is a brilliant town!

Wismar is a vibrant city – not least thanks to our students, who are bringing a fresh perspective here. That is what defines a Hanseatic city: the ability to preserve what has been built up over time whilst embracing new ideas.
