We would like to introduce you to the youngest University of Applied Sciences in Saxony-Anhalt: Harz University of Applied Sciences.
With its two locations in Wernigerode and Halberstadt, the university is located at the edge of the low mountain range, the Harz Mountains, which again are situated right in the middle of Germany. Both sites will inspire you with their wealth of natural landscapes and their rich history and architecture.
DISCOVER the numerous historical timber-framed houses, the old town hall and the castle in Wernigerode. EXPLORE the cathedral and its treasury in Halberstadt and EXPERIENCE the diverse range of tourist attractions and cultural sights of the region.
In a nutshell, the two locations of Harz University of Applied Sciences offer the best of both worlds. On the one hand, there are the advantages of smaller towns where one can live in a comfortable and familial environment.
