Library services

The State and University Library (Stabi) and the departmental libraries are central University institutions. There are computer workstations and conference rooms as well as books and magazines. You will need books and other media to study, prepare for classes and exams, and write papers. 

ICT services

University life does not only revolve around studying; students also thrive on meeting people and having fun. The campus is the perfect place for personal growth.

Starters might find our Main Building's cupola structure - home to the humanities - a bit awe-inspiring.  

Other buildings on campus also provide highlights. For instance, the Philosophers' Tower commonly called Phil-Turm, a 15 storey-building that offers a great panoramic view of the city. 

On mid-campus you will find our Duck Pond near a plot of green. In summer it invites to relax, sunbathe and observing the water fowl between classes.
