The pros of nature and city combined

Iserlohn is regarded as the “green” city on the periphery of the Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region. The city in the Sauerland area is rated highly as a place to live and stay, not least because of the rich cultural heritage combined with the advantages of the internationally renowned economic centers of South Westphalia – with 150 global market leaders – and of the Rhine-Ruhr regions. Firms from trade and industry, the services industry and the creative sector are all gathered here. The entire region is full of possibilities for young people, including lots of museums, galleries, and industrial architecture for those interested in culture.

Interlocked living and learning

At the Iserlohn campus of University of Europe for Applied Sciences (UE), the first of all three campuses, teaching, living and learning take place on an award-winning campus. Spot-on in the center of one of Germany’s strongest economic regions, the university offers short paths and optimal connections between studying and living. The on-campus atmosphere is informal, and the relationship between lecturers, professors and students is a trusting one, thus offering the perfect environment for personal achievement. According to a student survey carried out by the Unicum magazine, the Iserlohn campus is the third most beautiful campus in Germany.

Sporting facilities perfect for unwinding

Given its surroundings, the Iserlohn campus lends itself to interaction – regional, national, and international. On the grounds of the campus, located along the banks of Seilersee, 80 sun-lit apartments with a bathroom, kitchenette, and Internet access provide student accommodation. The extensive grounds are great for taking time-out between lectures. There are other amenities not every campus offers: jogging and recreational facilities, horse-riding stables, an ice-skating rink, and a gym directly neighboring the campus. The gym on campus offers free varsity sports, enabling all to escape the daily routine and meet other students.
