Let's go! The first days of study are exciting. Full of new experiences and impressions, but also full of question marks. We have collected the most important information for our new students.
The Corona pandemic challenges all members of the Ravensburg-Weingarten University of Applied Sciences (RWU) in their everyday work and studies. To learn from this for the coming semester, the university conducted a survey to get an idea of the experiences and impressions of the students.
Students at the RWU collected data on changed travel behaviour under the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic. The focus was on innovative IT applications for tourism and the willingness of travellers to include them in planning and holidays.
70 students successfully completed the industrial robotics laboratory despite the corona restrictions. This was possible because Professor Dr. Konrad Wöllhaf brought a virtual copy of the laboratory and the robots to their computers and thus to their homes.
During your studies, the campus becomes a piece of home. This is where friends meet, where people celebrate, learn and experiment. Unfortunately, this daily university life is currently only possible to a limited extent.
Maybe you have just started studying at RWU and spend more time in the online lecture than on campus. Maybe you miss the university a little? Maybe you just want to get an idea of life on our homely campus.
Ammar and Katherine will take you on a tour and show you labs, the cafeteria, student initiatives and the International Office. After this video you'll know your way around.
Ravensburg Weingarten University of Applied Sciences presents itself in a new guise. Not only the new website is online, the entire look of the university has been revised.
On the way there two characteristics of the RWU became apparent: on the one hand the strong regional roots. The majority of students come from the region, and the exchange with local companies and institutions is intensive. On the other hand, the international orientation plays an increasingly important role. Around 15 percent of the students come from abroad, and partner universities can be found on all continents.
The new logo was created from this simultaneity of regionality and internationality: the lion is the heraldic animal of the city of Weingarten, the district of Ravensburg and the state of Baden-Württemberg and stands for regional roots. The decision for the English name with the abbreviation RWU completes the international orientation.
