The University of Applied Sciences Meissen (HSF Meissen) is your opportunity if you’re looking for a hands-on, future-proof degree in a stunning setting. Since 1992, HSF Meissen has been preparing students for careers in public administration and the judiciary. Across five departments, the university trains mid-level managers for Saxon authorities and the judicial system – successfully and with a clear focus on practical skills!

Here, it’s not just about hitting the books – it’s about putting knowledge into action. The programme is dual: you alternate between theoretical phases at the university and practical phases in Saxon authorities or other suitable administrative training locations. This way, you gain real work experience during your studies and find it easy to enter the professional world. And the best part: you receive a fixed salary throughout your entire course of study.

The professors and lecturers know what they’re talking about: many come directly from professional practice and bring up-to-date knowledge from their everyday work. Whether law, economics, or digitalisation – here you gain the know-how to make a real impact later on.

Overcrowded lecture halls? Not at all! Small study groups and individual support from the teaching staff are top priorities.

Seven exciting bachelor’s and diploma programmes are available. In addition, HSF Meissen offers two part-time study programmes for those already in the workforce, providing further development opportunities.

Of course, it’s not just about study and work – HSF Meissen also offers a wide range of leisure activities: four different sports courses, singing in the university choir, skat tournaments, and many events in the on-campus student club – boredom is not an option here.
