Biomedical Technology at Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences (HSHL) is characterised by its interdisciplinary focus. Students receive a sound education in the fundamentals of medical technology as well as biological and natural sciences. This broad knowledge base enables graduates to solve complex problems at the interface of different subject areas. The degree course places great emphasis on application-oriented higher education. In the Biomedical Technology degree course, this is reflected in numerous laboratory activities, projects and practical phases.

The Hamm-Lippstadt University has partnerships around the world and participates in exchange programmes in connection with Erasmus and summer schools at various universities. Most of the degree programmes include a study or work placement abroad in the fifth semester (without extending the standard period of study).

Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences (HSHL) has extensive laboratory space with state-of-the-art equipment. The following facilities are available for the degree programme, among others: Scanning electron microscope with EDX detector unit/wafer bonding system/fluorescence microscope AXIO Imager D1/Z1 including accessories/GC/MS device/flow cytometer BD FACSCalibur/test bench for Stirling machines/ion chromatograph/Tecan Fluorescence Reader infinite M1000/SECM with a potentiostat Metrohm including microelectrodes/anaerobic workstation/elemental analyser/Instron ElectroPuls E1000/module bioreactor Minifors 2/STM scanning tunnel microscope

A special feature of all research projects is the interdisciplinarity that results from the organisational structure with four interdisciplinary departments. Rooms / laboratories are not assigned to people, departments or departments, but to task areas. Research projects frequently have high practical relevance.

The Hochschule Hamm-Lippstadt has a new building on both campuses, the latest technology (lecture theatres and laboratories) and also provides many student workspaces (group and individual workspaces). A large part of the university's own energy needs are covered by its solar power system. With the Institute for Sector Coupling, the university is actively committed to sustainability.
