The Annual Meeting of the Chancellors of German Universities in Pictures
From 19 to 21 September 2024, the annual conference of the chancellors of German universities took place at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. Around 100 participants from all over Germany came together to discuss the renovation backlog, processes and strategies in university construction, pioneering construction projects and the »campus of the future«.
»It was an honor and a great pleasure to welcome the chancellors of the German universities to the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar,« said the host, University Chancellor Dr. Horst Henrici, about the successful event, at which the central topic of university construction in the balancing act of a lack of resources, excessive bureaucracy and at the same time high demands for climate neutrality were discussed. Under the motto »University construction despite/crises«, participants discussed innovative solutions as well as current challenges and opportunities for universities in the coming years in specialist presentations and a university policy panel.
