How to Find Accommodation in Karlsruhe We Would Like To How to find accommodation in Karlsruhe We would like to welcome you to Karlshochschule International University and wish you an enjoyable time in Karlsruhe. Finding an accommodation in Karlsruhe is not always easy and may even be a challenge since there are quite a lot of people looking for an apartment close to the beginning of the semester. Therefore, we highly recommend that you start looking for an accommodation as soon as possible! The student dorms often require an application a few months before the start of the semester, and usually require a minimum stay of 6 months. Most students in Karlsruhe take a room in shared apartments. As places in the center are highly sought after, rooms outside of the city are often more affordable and easier to find. Many places outside of Karlsruhe can be reached conveniently via the local transport system, usually tram and/or bus. Here are some links which will help you with your search: Rooms in student residences: • Studentenwerk Karlsruhe: www.studentenwerk- karlsruhe.de/static.php?page=wohnen • Hans Dickmann Kolleg (Hadiko): www.hadiko.de/en/ • Hermann-Ehlers-Kolleg: www.hek.uni-karlsruhe.de/ • Hans-Freudenberg-Kolleg: www.hfk-online.de/index.html • Karl-Hans-Albrecht-Haus: www.kha.uni-karlsruhe.de/ • Theordor-Steinmann-Haus: http://www.theodor-steinmann-haus.de/Haus.html Rooms in shared apartments, single apartments or private residence halls published in local newspapers and magazines: • Badische Neueste Nachrichten (BNN): www.bnn.de/ • Karlsruher Anzeiger: www.karlsruher-anzeiger.de/index.html • Karlsruher Anzeigenzeitung (AZ) (distributed for free every Wednesday) • SperrMüll: www.sperrmuell.de Der Kurier: www.derkurier-swd.de • Wochenblatt Karlsruhe: www.az-verlag.de Student shared apartments: • www.wg-gesucht.de • www.studenten-wg.de • www.uni-karlsruhe.de/markt Kind of Hotel: • http://www.kolpinghaus-warsberger-hof.de/baukasten/kolping • jugendwohnheime/standorte/karlsruhe/wohnen.html • http://www.hotel-barbarossa-karlsruhe.de/index.php • http://www.caritas-karlsruhe.de/kettelerheim Housing partnership The program “Wohnpartnerschaften”, which is organised by the Student Union Karlsruhe, offers you the possibility of getting in contact with people from Karlsruhe and with the German Culture as well as a way to rent an affordable room to live in. Literally meaning “living partnerships”, the programme offers you the option of paying part of your rent by helping your landlord in the house or garden. Together with the landlord and the student, the Student Union decides what kind of and how much work the student does to pay for his or her rent (i.e. helping in the garden, walking the dog, helping the kids with homework). Usually, a certain level of German proficiency is required in order to participate in this program.

  • Karl Drais Born 29.4.1785 in Karlsruhe, Died 10.12.1851 in Karlsruhe. Short Biography Karl Drais, Baptised As Karl Friedrich
    Karl Drais born 29.4.1785 in Karlsruhe, died 10.12.1851 in Karlsruhe. Short Biography Karl Drais, baptised as Karl Friedrich Christian Ludwig, Freiherr (= baron) Drais von Sauerbronn first was a forest officer employed by the grand duchy of Baden. Later he became off duty whilst retaining his salary and did start a carer as an inventor. Next to others, he did invent a device to record piano music on paper, then a stenograph using 16 characters, two four-wheeled human powered vehicles and on top of all, the two-wheeled velocipede, also called Draisine or hobby- horse, which he presented first time on June 12th 1817 in Mannheim. This was the first vehicle requiring to keep balance whilst using it as a key principle. It was equipped decades later by Pierre Michaux with pedals to become the modern bicycle and further down the road, the automobile invented by Carl Benz. For his inventions, Grand Duke Carl awarded Drais a pension and appointed him as a professor for mechanic science. His experiments with small rail-road bound vehicles did contribute to the railroad handcar, having even today the German name Draisine. Drais was a fervent democrat, supported the wave of revolutions that swept Europe in 1848, dropping his title and the aristocratic "von" from his name in 1849. After the revolution in Baden had collapsed, Drais became mobbed and ruined by royalists. After his death, Drais's enemies systematically repudiate his invention of horseless moving on two wheels.

  • Metropolitan Cities Under Transition: the Example of Hamburg/Germany
    Metropolitan Cities under Transition: The Example of Hamburg/Germany Amelie Boje, Ingrid Ott, and Silvia Stiller In the intermediate and long run, energy prices and hence trans- portation costs are expected to increase significantly. According to the reasoning of the New Economic Geography this will strengthen the spreading forces and thus affect the economic landscape. Other influ- encing factors on the regional distribution of economic activity include the general trends of demographic and structural change. In industri- alized countries, the former induces an overall reduction of population and labor force, whereas the latter implies an ongoing shift to the ter- tiary sector and increased specialization. Basically, cities provide better conditions to cope with these challenges than do rural regions. Since the general trends affect all economic spaces similarly, especially city- specific factors have to be considered in order to derive the impact of rising energy costs on future urban development. With respect to Hamburg, regional peculiarities include the overall importance of the harbor as well as the existing composition of the industry and the ser- vice sector. The analysis highlights that rising energy and transporta- tion costs will open up a range of opportunities for the metropolitan region. Key Words: urban development, regional specialization, structural change, demographic change, transportation costs jel Classification: r11; j11 Introduction Decreasing transportation and communication costs which could be ob- served during the last several decades have been a central reason for in- Amelie Boje is visiting research fellow at the Hamburg Institute of International Economics (hwwi),Germany,andpostgraduate student at University College London (ucl),UnitedKingdom.

  • Karlsruhe Im STÄDTERANKING 2019
    Karlsruhe im STÄDTERANKING 2019 Zentrale Ergebnisse HINTERGRUND Deutsche Großstädte sind nicht nur zentrale Lebensräume für viele Menschen, sondern auch wichtige Wirtschaftsräume. In den 71 Großstädten lebt mit knapp 26,4 Millionen Menschen fast ein Drittel der Bevölkerung. Sie sind Arbeitsort für 17,2 Millionen Erwerbstätige, wodurch in den Städten ein erhebliches Maß des Wohlstands erwirtschaftet wird. Zugleich gehen von hier starke Ausstrahlungseffekte und Impulse für Innovationen aus. Die Zukunft liegt in der Stadt: Als Heimat zukunftsträchtiger Industrien und Branchen wie der Kultur- und Kreativwirtschaft sind Städte der Schlüssel für eine wettbewerbsfähige Wirtschaft . Megatrends wie die Digitalisierung, Vernetzung und Wissensintensivierung führen zu einem stetigen Wandel in Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Um für die Zukunft gerüstet zu sein, ist der Ausbau der digitalen Netze in den deutschen Großstädten von elementarer Bedeutung. Er bildet die Grundlage, damit Unternehmen überhaupt von den Möglichkeiten der Megatrends in der digitalen Welt profitieren können. In diesem Kontext gilt es zudem, junge, technologieorientierte Unternehmen durch eine aktive Gründungsförderung bei der Umsetzung ihrer Ideen zu unterstützen. Aber auch etablierte Unternehmen müssen stetig ihre Unternehmensstrategien anpassen und Innovationsaktivitäten ausbauen, um von den neuen Möglichkeiten zu profitieren. Zur Orientierung lohnt ein Blick über die deutschen Grenzen hinaus, wo digitale Vorreiter wie Malmö oder Tallin auf dem Weg zur Stadt der Zukunft sind. Das Städteranking bildet all diese Facetten ab und zeigt, wo die Großstädte auf dem Weg in die Zukunft stehen. 1 UNTERSUCHUNG Wie lebt und arbeitet es sich in deutschen Großstädten? Die drei Partner IW Consult, Wirtschaftswoche und ImmobilienScout24 nutzen eine umfassende Indikatorenbasis, um dieser Frage auf den Grund zu gehen.
