Other state universities with top ten places are the University of Mannheim (4th place) and the KIT (9th place). This means Baden-Württemberg has the most universities with top evaluations from students. Details can be found at www.studycheck.de/hochschulranking/beliebteste-universitaeten. The selection criteria are strict: Only universities with at least 3.8 out of 5 stars and a recommendation rate over 90 percent are included in the ranking. In addition, at least 50 students had to have submitted a rating between 1 January and 31 December 2017. Currently, around 500 university with over 16,000 degree programs are included in the assessment. The evaluation includes the content of the degree programs, quality of supervision, courses, and resources, but also campus life and organization. The ratings also include reports from the students. Three Top Ten Universities from Baden-Württemberg With 4 out of 5 stars and a recommendation rate of 93 percent, the University of Hohenheim was the most popular university in the state. Nationally, it came in 2nd place after the European University Viadrina in Frankfurt/Oder (3.9 of 5 stars; recommendation rate of 99 percent). In all, Baden-Württemberg proved itself to be a very popular state for students: Three of the top ten universities come from this state - more than from any other. Besides the University of Hohenheim, this included the University of Mannheim (4th place with 4 out of 5 stars; 90 percent recommendation rate) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology KIT (9th place with 3.9 out of 5 stars; 91 percent recommendation rate). 1/2 Most Beautiful Campus in the State In addition to the current title as the most popular university in the state, the University of Hohenheim has already been determined to have the state’s most beautiful campus. This result comes from an online survey conducted among students in the early 2000s. It was organized by the student magazine UNICUM in cooperation with the Architecture Portal BauNetz. Karlsruhe’s campus was awarded second place in Baden-Württemberg. The title of the most beautiful campus in Germany went to the University of Passau; the University of Magedeburg-Stendal was in second place.

Being integrated in the University’s Institute of IT-Security and Security Law (ISL), it aims at an interdisciplinary research and teaching in the field of new and emerg- ing Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). In several co-operations with re- searchers from technical and social sciences, our goal is twofold: First, there is a strong need to develop legal criteria for the design and practical use of such new technologies. Second, technical change leads to new social conflicts, which in turn pose new questions to the legal system. Thus, new regulation strategies are developed to meet these challenges. Prof. Dr. Gerrit Hornung – CV Gerrit Hornung is a full professor of public law, IT law and legal informatics at the University of Passau. He studied law and philosophy at the University of Freiburg (1996-2001). After his first state exam, he attended an LL.M. course at the University of Edinburgh which focused on European law and European and international human rights. His PhD thesis, dealing with the legal problems of smartcards (particularly the new German ID card and patient data cards), was awarded the 2006 Wissenschaftspreis of the Deutsche Stiftung für Recht und In- formatik (DSRI).

  • Facts and Figures. President's Report. 2017-18
    Facts and figures. President’s Report 250 best universities worldwide 40 Years University A University of Passau for Europe Now and in the Future 2017–18 Foreword from the President Dear friends, sponsors and members of the University of Passau, The academic year 2017–18 was all about our University’s 40th anniversary, which we celebrated with a big weekend festival in June 2018 and at the Dies academicus, on 9 November, as the last festivity of our anniversary year. Forty years ago, in 1978, the University started out with a few dozen staff and just a few hundred students, sent here, to the border region be- tween Austria, the Czech Republic and Germany, by the central university admissions body for Germany. By the year 2025, we expect to grow to approximately 15,000 students and 1,500 staff in academic and support functions. We are preparing for this by positioning the University of Passau accordingly in terms of the disciplines represented here and by implementing suitable policies in the areas of finance, organisational structure, personnel – and not least by expanding the University’s physical space capacities. Having received, in September 2018, the full approval of the competent state ministries for our application for an extension of the campus onto to the former premises of the Lowenbrau brewery, we will now expand our built environment at the same time as we grow figuratively into a world-class university. On the Spitzberg site, the ‘Passau International Centre of Science and Research’ will be established, bringing the University as a centre of excellent, competitive research and strong, innovative teaching closer to the city centre of Passau and creating a gateway to Passau as a city of science.
