Hamm-Lippsdat University of Applied Sciences is a public university located in North Rhine-Westphalia. It is a applied science University. It was found in 2009, and named after its two locations in Hamm & Lippstadt. This university mainly focused on STEM.
Currently 4700 students are studying at the two locations in 14 bachelor and 10 master's programs.[2]
History
[edit]In May 2007, North Rhine-Westphalia's Minister-President Jürgen Rüttgers announced an initiative to counteract the growing shortage of skilled workers, particularly in engineering subjects.[2]
Twenty-two cities, regions, and existing universities of applied sciences applied for the locations of a total of three new universities of applied sciences in North Rhine-Westphalia. The cities of Hamm and Lippstadt submitted a joint application. On November 28, 2008, their application was accepted by cabinet decision. The law came into force with its promulgation on April 21, 2009.[3] On September 21, 2009, courses began at both locations.
In contrast to the traditional division into faculties, Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences is organized into departments. This is intended to facilitate interdisciplinary teaching and research.[4]
Location
[edit]Campus in Hamm
[edit]In Hamm, buildings of the former Paracelsus Barracks of the German Armed Forces were used until the beginning of 2014. Until 1963, the site (then address: Stadthof 18) housed schools including the Hamm-Osten Catholic Elementary School, the Hamm-Osten Community School, the Municipal Secondary School (now the Friedrich Ebert Secondary School), the Mathematical Gymnasium (now the Freiherr-vom-Stein Gymnasium), and the Humanistic Gymnasium (now the Hammonense), as well as the Hermann Fiegener plumbing and heating engineering company. The schoolyard was later converted into a parade ground after the German Armed Forces moved in.Demolition of the old Bundeswehr Hospital began in December 2010. The new university building, with 17,340 m2 of usable space, was built on the site on Marker Allee by 2014. Classes began in the first completed buildings in the 2013/14 winter semester. At the end of June 2014, the Hamm campus was officially inaugurated and shortly thereafter received the architecture and design award "Iconic Award".[5]
Campus in Lippstadt
[edit]In Lippstadt, a similar new building was constructed near the historic city center by spring 2014. The total usable space is 15,910 m2. Until its completion, Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences used seminar and lecture rooms at the Cartec on Erwitter Straße, in a Hella KGaA Hueck & Co. building on Lüningstraße, and in a building on Rixbecker Straße
