Wismar University of Applied Sciences<br />
stands on the three educational pillars of<br />
Technology, Business and Design. Scientific<br />
disciplines range from the traditional, such as<br />
electrical engineering, civil engineering, mechanical<br />
engineering and business administration,<br />
to modern topics such as multimedia<br />

<strong>net</strong>working activities. Its international orientation<br />
helps the university position itself as an<br />
innovator, strengthening both regional business<br />
structures and the European higher<br />
education scene. An active partner in the<br />
Bologna Process, Wismar University has<br />
