Start your studies

The library is characterised by a very special working atmosphere and stands above all for quiet and concentrated work. In addition to the classic reading room and PC workstations, you will also find quiet zones. The library also offers interesting options for groups with the bookable discussion rooms, where you can stay among yourselves as a group, and the open learning spaces, where you will find flexible furniture.

The Co-Learning Spaces C0, V0 and V1 are centrally located in the hall and have comfortable equipment, flexible tables and screens, as well as analogue and digital visualisation options. They are popular with students who want to work alone or in small groups in a lively atmosphere.

BITS SPACE combines media rooms, studios, makerspaces and PC pools and offers modern technical equipment. It is supervised by experts in the fields of IT, media and eLearning. It is a place for an innovative and creative space for students, teaching staff, instructors, lecturers and other members of the university.

The accessibility services (ZAB) operate two rooms for students with disabilities, chronic or mental illnesses. The rooms are equipped with assistive technologies and are designed to minimise stimuli. If required, the rooms can also be used for examinations as part of disadvantage compensation.

There are numerous workstations in the university hall and on the gallery. They are particularly suitable for shorter time slots. There are also seating niches in some corridors in the X building.

Some seminar rooms are released for use by students every semester. It is also possible to use unused seminar rooms between courses during the lecture period.

 

The catering departments offer many opportunities to do something for the university over a coffee or snack. In the university canteen, dining room 3 is open from 9:00 to 16:00.

There is seating behind the UHG between the teeth. The Enzis, which are set up around the UHG from spring, are very popular. The seats on the social field can also be used for studying.

If you are travelling with a child, you can use the library's parent-child rooms (C1-127, V1-207 and X-F1-227), which provide a play corner for children and allow parents to work. There are also breastfeeding and baby-care rooms.

Workstations for students will be departmentalised on various levels around the entrance area in part A/B of the building. In the immediate vicinity of the counselling and service offerings, students will have attractive opportunities to stay on site, work and learn together. For example, 250 workstations will be available in the library area, and around 100 additional workstations with IT support will be added in the BITS SPACE. A further 34 PC workstations will be available in the BITS-PC POOL on B02.

The UniMaps app from the "Accessibility Centre" makes it easier to find places on campus.
