At the university since 1993

My favourite experience at the University of Oldenburg was ...

the great teamwork of all university departments in organising the acoustics and audiology conference in March 2014, which was rewarded with the highest praise for the university from the 1,800 guests in total: The "party for all" with the university's soul ensembles, a perfect ambience and catering and a super atmosphere among perhaps the largest crowd that has ever been in our university library, it all came together: It's hard to top that!

In ten years, the University of Oldenburg will be 50 years old. It will then be ...

known for the world's best connection between medicine and natural sciences, based on the exemplary overcoming of encrusted and outdated structures.
