  3. Situated in the heart of the Lausitz region, BTU combines outstanding international research with future-oriented teaching. It makes an important contribution to society, our culture and the economy through knowledge and technology transfer and with further education. As a technical university, BTU offers a teaching concept found nowhere else in Germany: our courses of study lead to either a university or a university of applied science degree, or to a so-called dual education degree, which is obtained through a combination of academic schooling and vocational training. 183 professors (including guest, junior and deputy professors) • 652 academic employees of which 294 are financed by third party funds • 680 non-academic employees of which 48 are financed by third party funds, 14 are trainees (figures in the full-time equivalent, updated 31.12.2018, rounded to the nearest figure) General budget 2018: approx. 89,5 Mio. € Third party funding revenue 2018: approx. 32,2 million euros FACTS AND FIGURES Main Building, Central Campus 01 · FACTS AND FIGURES

  15. EXCELLENCE IN RESEARCH AND TEACHING • BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg, newly established on 1 July 2013, is an amalgamation of BTU Cottbus and Lausitz University of Applied Sciences. It offers everything its two predecessor institutions offered yet is also developing completely new profiles. Where research and technology transfer are concerned, we greatly value our cooperation with other universities and non-university based research institutions, regional small and medium-sized businesses and also major, international corporations. Our university has initiated many measures aimed at keeping well-qualified people in the region. One of the most important of these measures is the expansion of our dual education degree course programme initiated in 2015. The university also supports start-up efforts. Respective assistance is offered in the form of institutional measures. Young start-ups create new impulses for the regional economy, and inspire modern forms of cooperation.

  16. DEGREE COURCES THAT DIFFERENT NEEDS With more than 70 degree courses at three locations, BTU Cottbus–Senftenberg offers a wide spectrum of employment market oriented courses. The scope ranges from natural and engineering sciences to economics and cultural studies, as well as health sciences. Our health related courses, Healthcare Sciences and Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Sciences, and the three university of applied science level degree courses, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Industrial Engineering and Management, can also be taken in the form of a dual education degree course.

  17. DEGREE COURCES THAT DIFFERENT NEEDS BTU also offers individual time models such as full- or part-time courses, evening courses, or further qualification courses in order to create the perfect conditions for combining studying for a degree with working, looking after children or family life. With state-of-the-art technical equipment, a good level of supervision and innovative teaching concepts, our young university with an international focus guarantees hands-on, future-oriented learning.

  18. BROAD SPECTRUM OF COURSES ON OFFER IN THREE PLACES At its three sites, BTU Cottbus–Senftenberg offers excellent conditions for teaching and research: the natural science, engineering and economics subjects are taught in Cottbus and Senftenberg, whilst the music and social pedagogy degree courses are taught in Cottbus-Sachsendorf. We are currently in the process of establishing our new healthcare, therapy and rehabilitation sciences department in Senftenberg in addition to the engineering sciences, chemistry and biotechnology courses already taught there.

  19. OUTSTANDING RESEARCH • Excellent teaching should be matched by outstanding research, and also by the successful transfer of knowledge and technology into society and to the industry. This classic characteristic of a technical university also applies at BTU Cottbus–Senftenberg and will continue to be developed further. • BTU Cottbus–Senftenberg has made some changes in order to establish an outstanding profile in four research areas: • Smart Regions und Heritage, • Energy Efficiency and Sustainability, • Biotechnology, Environment and Health and also • Cognitive and Cyber-physical Systems. • We have conducted intensive and successful research in these fields for many years, and now intend to increasingly build on our past achievements. A strategic appointment policy will strengthen the various specialist areas to such an extent as to ensure that we can successfully accomplish this in a few years only.

  27. LEISUREAND CULTURAL ACTIVITY POSSIBILITIES Cottbus In a former Diesel power plant from 1928 lies the Cottbus Art Museum for contemporary art since 2008. The extensive collections can be seen in continual exhibitions. The converted power plant site in Amtsteich offers a very unique charm. The Cottbus Staatstheater (State Theater) offers sophisticated repertoire from concerts to opera. Its ensemble is well known nationwide. This Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) style building by the architect Sehring in 1908 was renovated in 2008 and has retained its original interior design. Something unique is the Eastern European Film Festival held every year in November that turns Cottbus into a metropolis for filmmakers. A student culture and bar scene around campus and in the nearby Cottbus Altstadt (old town) offers a special atmosphere. BTU’s collegiate sports programme is well known for its diverse offers, which fit very well for many students along side their studies.

  28. LEISURE AND CULTURAL ACTIVITY POSSIBILITIES Senftenberg The “NEUE BÜHNE” celebrated ist 65th birthday in October 2011. Founded a year after World War II, the “Theater of the Miners” (Theater des Bergarbeiter) soon developed into a very popular Dreispartentheater (a unique German word for a theater comprising of performances of music, plays, and dance) in the country. Today it is a theater for everyone. Between Berlin and Dresden lies a new unique waterscape, the “Lausitzer Seenland” (Lusatian Lake District). For several years, the former surface mining landscape is getting a new look with deep blue splashes of color. A completely new landscape is developing, which will become the largest contiguous lake district in Europe with a total of 23 large lakes. The indoor ski slope “Snowtropolis” provides winter sport lovers the opportunity for winter sport and other fun activities all year round in an ice-cold atmosphere. There one can find a 130-meter long slope for skiing and snowboarding fans alike. The aquatics center “Senftenberger See” offers excellent sailing and wind surfing opportunities with its 1,300 hectares of water area, making it ideal for many water sport activities.
