Welcome to our close-knit campus!
With around 1,600 students and located between Hamburg and Sylt, we offer you not only the best studies of your life but a true experience.
In the faculties of Business and Engineering, Bachelor’s and Master’s programs await you. Practical relevance, close cooperation with industry, and a strong focus on sustainability in all areas of the university shape your studies.
The university itself impresses with its short distances. It’s are not spread out over many square kilometres; instead, you’ll find everything compact and close together on our campus: modern teaching and learning spaces, the library—which we are currently renovating and furnishing with new furniture—our café lounge, laboratories, and of course the student union’s cafeteria. By the way: two large student dormitories are located right next to the campus, and you can easily get around here by bike.
But studying at the West Coast UAS is much more than that – it’s about community. Our open doors and short distances create an atmosphere of togetherness where everyone feels welcome. Here, you are more than just a student ID number – your personal academic success matters to us. Our professors are not just lecturers but also your contacts and companions throughout your studies. And a friendly chat (“Klönschnack”) in front of the library is just as much a part of everyday life at FH as the lectures themselves.
So, welcome to the West Coast UAS – where studying means not only gaining knowledge but also experiencing adventure!
