From 2020, a new and up-to-date university campus will start to take shape. Three large building complexes will be constructed in the heart of Jena. These will be home to the Department of Psychology and the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Sciences, together with a ‘Natural Sciences and Pre-clinical’ branch of the Thuringian University and State Library (ThULB), a cafeteria and the new University Computer Centre.
Sheltered courtyards, green spaces and close proximity will foster contacts and make the Inselplatz site a central space for communication. “The new, urgently needed spaces in the city centre expand the University’s capacity for research and teaching. They also provide room for the necessary infrastructure, as well as for people to meet and communicate. This is extremely important, as science depends on interaction,” says Prof. Walter Rosenthal, President of Jena’s Friedrich Schiller University.
This page will be continually updated and expanded. As soon as construction has started, you will find here all the key information concerning the ‘Inselplatz Campus’.
