The university 21 in Buxtehude

The college 21 is a private college in Buxtehude in Lower Saxony .

history

The educational institution was founded in 2004 as a state-recognized private university of applied sciences and began its studies in the 2005/2006 winter semester. It is based on the Buxtehude site of the former Northeast Lower Saxony University of Applied Sciences , which was dissolved as part of the “university optimization concept” of the Lower Saxony state government. The protest in the region resulted in an initiative for a private sponsorship based on the model of the private public partnership .

Architects and civil engineers have been trained in Buxtehude since 1875 . Today's hochschule 21 continues this tradition, but has relied on dual bachelor's degree programs from the very beginning and has expanded the range of courses to include other professions in technology and health. In 2008, the first graduates completed their studies with a bachelor's degree.

The name of the university is derived on the one hand from its ties to the region; the Elbe-Weser area belongs to the post code region 21. On the other hand, he refers to the reorganization of the European higher education system through the Bologna process , which aims for a forward-looking, uniform European higher education area for 2020.

profile

The university pursues a scientific approach with a high degree of practical relevance in its teaching: In the dual study programs, theoretical and practical phases alternate on a quarterly basis. The course therefore strongly aims at a professional qualification. Some of the students are employees posted by companies. The other part applies freely and brings the employer with them to the university. Admission to the course is also possible without a permanent practice partner - the university places applicants within a network of around 1000 companies. In the field of construction, these are predominantly engineering and architecture offices as well as construction and real estate companies. In the technology department , practical positions are offered by technology companies and industrial companies. The courses in the health department are designed to be integrated into training; Cooperation partners here are the Elbe Kliniken Stade-Buxtehude , the Asklepios Kliniken Hamburg and the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf . As a rule, the bachelor students are taken over by the practice partners after their studies.

In addition to the bachelor's degree programs, the university offers advanced and advanced training seminars in the fields of construction and health. During the course of studies, there is the possibility of taking exams for the apprenticeship trainer (AEVO), draftsman and real estate agent in cooperation with the IHK in Stade .

The university's equipment, which also benefits application-oriented research, includes a laboratory for building materials and geotechnics, a laboratory for electrical engineering, a laboratory for production and manufacturing technology, a laboratory for mechatronics and robotics, and a model-making workshop.
