The Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences (HSHL for short) is a university of applied sciences in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia that was founded in 2009 and named after its two locations in Hamm and Lippstadt . It was founded to strengthen the range of courses in the MINT area.

Since the 2016 winter semester, around 5,800 students have been studying at the two locations in 14 bachelor's and 9 master's programs.

The president of the university is Klaus Zeppenfeld , the vice-president is Susanne Lengyel and the chancellor is Karl-Heinz Sandknop.

founding

In May 2007, NRW Prime Minister Jürgen Rüttgers announced an initiative to counter the increased shortage of skilled workers, especially in engineering subjects. 22 cities, regions and existing universities of applied sciences applied for the locations of the three new universities of applied sciences in North Rhine-Westphalia. The cities of Hamm and Lippstadt submitted a joint application. On November 28, 2008, her application was accepted by a cabinet decision. The law came into effect on April 21, 2009 when it was promulgated. On September 21, 2009, study operations began at both locations.

In contrast to the traditional division into faculties, the Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences is divided into departments. This is intended to facilitate interdisciplinary teaching and research.

In Hamm, the buildings of the former Paracelsus barracks were used by the Bundeswehr until the beginning of 2014 . Schools were housed on their grounds (then address: Stadthof 18) until 1963, B. the Katholische Volksschule Hamm-Osten, the community school Hamm-Osten, the Städtische Realschule (today Friedrich-Ebert-Realschule), the mathematical high school (today Freiherr-vom-Stein-Gymnasium) and the humanistic high school (today the Hammonense), also the installation and heating construction company Hermann Fiegener. The school yard was later converted into a parade ground after the armed forces had moved in. The demolition of the old army hospital began in December 2010 . The new university building was built on the site at Marker Allee by 2014 on 17,340 m² of usable space. In the 2013/14 winter semester, teaching began in the first completed buildings. The Hamm campus was officially inaugurated at the end of June 2014 and shortly thereafter received the “Iconic Award” for architecture and design.

In Lippstadt, a new building was built near the historic city center by spring 2014. The total usable area is 15,910 m². Until its completion, the Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences used seminar and lecture rooms in Cartec on Erwitter Straße and in a building belonging to Hella KGaA Hueck & Co. on Lüningstraße and in a building on Rixbecker Straße.
