Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences, University of Applied Sciences in Osnabruck, Lower-Saxony, Germany

Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences is a public university in Osnabrück, Germany, with a second campus in the city of Lingen. The Westerberg campus brings together teaching buildings, laboratories, a library, and a dining hall on one connected site.

The university was founded in 1971 and has since grown into the largest institution of its kind in Lower Saxony. Several buildings on campus were originally barracks or factory halls that were later converted into teaching and research spaces.

The Terrassenfest is a spring celebration held each year on the Westerberg campus that draws students from all faculties together. Music, food stalls, and shared activities fill the outdoor spaces for an evening that has become a fixture in student life.

The main Westerberg campus sits close to the center of Osnabrück and is easy to reach by public transport. Anyone looking for information about courses or enrollment can stop by the ServiceDesk, which is the main point of contact on campus.

One of the buildings on the Westerberg campus is known among students as the Frog, a nickname that comes from its unusual shape. It sits between the dining hall and the library and is easy to spot on a first walk around campus.
