Bautzen becomes a university city: a milestone for education and region!

Bautzen, Deutschland - On Wednesday morning, June 15, 2025, celebrations are celebrated in Bautzen. The status as a "university city" was officially announced, and the celebrations on the Friedensbrücke not only attract local prominence. Saxon Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer, Mayor Karsten Vogt and numerous other urban fees are on site to celebrate this important event. Prime Minister Kretschmer emphasizes the importance of education for Saxony, especially in rural regions, and emphasizes the new possibilities that this status brings.

A very special highlight of the celebration was the handover of a place sign with the addition "University City of Bautzen - Wysokošulske Město Budyšin". This sign is attached to all entrances to the core city and is intended to underline the new identity of the city. "The conversion of the Bautzen vocational academy into the dual University of Saxony is a real milestone for our city," explains Mayor Vogt. The city council unanimously decided to the city council unanimously, which only underlines how important university formation is for the city.

upgrading the training in Bautzen

The Dual University of Bautzen has established itself in the educational and research landscape of Upper Lusatia. With the upgrading to the state academy, students can now acquire full -fledged academic degrees, which significantly increases the attractiveness of the location for students. Rektorin Professor Katharina Bühn sieht hier große Vorteile und wertet die Einführung dualer Master-Studiengänge als nächsten Schritt zur Verbesserung des Bildungsangebots. The close interlinking of theory and practice remains through the employment of the students in practical companies. What a win for both sides!

The Saxony University of Applied Sciences, since the beginning of the year, has replaced the Saxony Vocational Academy and comprises seven study academies. A unique offer is offered among the new provisions of the university, which allows applicants without a high school diploma to start the courses if they can demonstrate at least three years of state training. This is particularly advantageous for many young people in the region.

collaboration with the city and the region

The city of Bautzen is an active practice partner of the university and trains students together with the support association of the student academy. "Economy and science should work hand in hand. That is our motto:" Wirtschaft + Science = Growth! "", Vogt continues. An innovation corridor between Dresden and Görlitz, inspired by the Brandenburg model, is also advertised to further strengthen the region's digital and traffic infrastructure.

The meaning of well -trained specialists is always emphasized. The change to university status is considered an important incentive to keep young people in the region and offer them an attractive training center on site. In addition, the lecture series "Bautzener Akademie", which has been offering free lectures for all interested parties since 2005, opens up new knowledge and educational opportunities.

With the series of new measures, the city of Bautzen is well equipped in order to be the first university city in the district to set an example for the region and noticeably strengthen the connection between education and business.
