"IT WILL...

and it became. The campus that has now opened is the result of many joint efforts, setbacks, new ideas and the confidence that we have created something really good. I wish the teachers and students in this creative, inspiring environment the joy of innovative learning, intensive research, beautiful commonalities and conspiratorial exchange. The best foundations have been laid for a successful step into the next phase of life.
Reliable, innovative, forward-looking, collaborative - this is how I know and appreciate working at and with the Ludwigshafen University of Business and Society. It is a good way

... I KNOW"

Beatrix Schnitzius, Chairwoman of the Board of Trustees

As a former graduate of Ludwigshafen University of Applied Sciences, I look back on my time on campus with great gratitude and appreciation. The years I spent there not only gave me valuable knowledge, but also provided me with formative experiences and valuable relationships.

The opening of the new Building C marks an exciting milestone for the university. The building is not only architecturally appealing, but for me it symbolizes the constant progress and ongoing development of Ludwigshafen University of Applied Sciences. The lettering "ES WIRD" on the roof of the new building immediately caught my eye on my first visit. "ES WIRD" is a promise for an exciting future made possible by education, research and innovation. It reflects optimism, progress and dynamism. Above all, this lettering reminds us that there is always room for growth and improvement and that the future holds something good in store for us.

Opposite the new library is the counterpart "I KNOW". For me, this lettering is a statement of trust. It stands for the knowledge that is gained at this university and for the skills that students acquire here. The lettering symbolizes confidence in the impact and value of a good education.

With the completion of the new building, Ludwigshafen University of Applied Sciences has not only grown physically, but also in terms of its importance and influence. It is a place of learning, research and exchange that now offers even more opportunities for students, education and staff. The new building opens up opportunities for innovative projects, interdisciplinary collaboration and even closer networking with industry and other educational institutions. I would particularly like to contribute to this in my role as part of the University Council.

As part of the HWG LU community, I am proud to witness the development and growth of the university. I look forward to seeing how the university develops and realizes its vision of excellent education and research. Because "I KNOW" that "IT WILL" and that the future of Ludwigshafen University of Applied Sciences is promising."

Andreas Gietl, BASF SE

With its independent profile, the HWG LU is visible in the city and an attractive part of the university landscape in the metropolitan region. The new building not only gives the university a campus character, but also lends architectural expression to its self-image. "It will be": Ludwigshafen is a city of hope; perseverance and persistence are key skills here. The new building is a success, congratulations!

As Dean of the Marketing and Human Resources Management Department, I would like to congratulate us all on the new building on the campus in Mundenheim. The new C-building is a valuable contribution to the campus feeling and strengthens our positioning as a modern, face-to-face university. The attempt a few years ago to position the university in the city center would also have offered a WIN-WIN solution for everyone involved and was the preferred option for large sections of the city's society. However, although the project failed due to the state government, it had a catalytic effect on the new building in Mundenheim, which finally went ahead as a result. True to the motto 'Better a bird in the hand than a pigeon on the roof', I am delighted with our new building and look forward to a vibrant campus with all our Departments and almost all institutes in one place.

Prof. Dr. Klaus Blettner, Dean of the Department of Marketing and Human Resource Management

As a central player in the city, Ludwigshafen University of Applied Sciences has made a significant contribution to urban development and was a pioneer of city marketing. It is dedicated to the workplace of the future and trains highly qualified specialists who contribute to economic development. In September, the university proudly inaugurates its new campus building. This facility will promote the training of future managers and strengthen Ludwigshafen as a location for innovation. We at LUKOM are proud to be a partner of the university, supporting its positive development and promoting the attractiveness of our city.

Christoph Keimes, Managing Director of LUKOM Ludwigshafener Kongress- und Marketing-Gesellschaft mbH

The Ludwigshafen University of Business and Society has continued to develop very positively since its beginnings - more students, more degree programs, many interesting opportunities for education/further education. This makes it all the more important to have good facilities. I am delighted that this long-awaited and urgently needed new building at HWG LU has finally been completed, creating a campus that allows students to study successfully in a pleasant atmosphere!

The horizon in which we live

Education is not an accumulation of knowledge. Education is the expansion of horizons. This is what distinguishes us from machines. We stride along our horizon and yet never reach it. And so we continue to educate ourselves. We educate ourselves - in our brains and in our hearts. A new building sets milestones on this path. So it's time to celebrate. A new campus sets a new horizon that will be filled with life, passion and love for education. Congratulations on this! And here's to new horizons!

Dr. Paul Metzger, Dean, Protestant Deanery Ludwigshafen

After a long wait for the new building, we were delighted to see it completed and have now spent the first semester in the new building with great enthusiasm. The resulting campus atmosphere with the integration of all four Departments has created a great spirit of optimism and invites a new dimension of academic exchange and interdisciplinary collaboration. The art on the building - the inscription "It will" - is a symbol of our future-oriented focus and the constant striving for professional excellence and innovative strength.

Prof. Dr. Birgit Angermayer, Dean of the Departments of Services & Consulting

The university and the TZL have been linked for many years, and not just because of their close proximity. Students and graduates of the university use the advice, network, services, rooms and infrastructure of the TZL to develop and implement their technology-oriented start-up ideas. The university's start-up office and the new building can make an important contribution to accelerating innovation projects in the future through the transfer of knowledge between the university and the start-up scene. The START Rhine-Neckar event, which will take place in the new building on October 10, 2024, will send a clear signal in this regard.

Michael Hanf, Managing Director TZL
