Daniela V. Mechanical Engineering I am 23 years old, studying Mecha- nical Engineering in the 2nd semester and living in Schweinfurt.

I like studying mecha- nical engineering because it represents the ideal combina- tion of technical knowledge and practical relevance. In the case of mechanical engi- neering lab courses and pro- jects, you have the chance to practically apply knowledge obtained and gain initial experience in diverse engi- neering activities. Because my studies include in-depth practice in an in- dustrial Schweinfurt compa- ny, I also like the proximity of work and university. So there is still time left to visit the city's beautiful places, such as the wildlife park.

STUDYING IN SCHWEINFURT | 15 FHWS Schweinfurt enjoys great popu- larity - continuously increasing student numbers, a wide range of courses and dual study opportunities require the FHWS’s corresponding expansion. For example, as part of expanding the inter- national FHWS i-Campus on the former conversion site Ledward Barracks, the new building for the Faculty of Business and Engineering will be constructed along Carusallee. In the future, 4,100 square metres of usable space on two floors will be avail- able to lecturers, staff and students in lec- ture halls, seminar rooms, laboratories and offices. A special feature of the building is one of the most modern laboratories in Bavaria, in which virtual reality (VR) can be shown, used and researched.

FHWS has set itself the goal of becoming THE international university of Bavaria: On the FHWS i-Campus, conversations are also being held more frequently in English - es- pecially at Schweinfurt, where most of the so-called TWIN programmes are based. These programmes are attended by stu- dents from more than 80 countries in parallel with German students in German and English language lectures. The FHWS i-Campus programme is accompanied by support programmes and language cours- es to guarantee linguistic, professional and cultural diversity as well as the promotion of all students’ inter-cultural skills.

Computer science is prominent here, because it forms the basis for new applications, in particular Artificial Intelligence (AI). This is not only treated from a technological point of view in the degree programme, but also addressed from an ethi-cal perspective. This is intended to sensitise budding robotics engineers early on and raise awareness of ethical responsfibility in using AI technologies.

Another study focus is practical training. Each semester a separate module is provided in which students take part in degree pro- gramme experiments or independent project work. True to the motto "Learning by Doing," students gain experience in handling robots

So many people in Schweinfurt had brilliant ideas in former times. Here is a small overview.

Dialysis machines Fresenius Medical Care is the world leader in dialysis products and services. In Schweinfurt, the company produces among other things the 6008 CAREsystem dialysis machine. It optimises dialysis treatment and makes it even more economical. The 6008 CAREsystem stands for reduced complexity that minimises the required ope- rating steps during the dialysis procedure.
