Remain part of the university community
Entering (active) retirement marks the start of a new chapter in life ā but that doesnāt mean your connection to the university has to end.

Whether itās interesting talks, readings, excursions or the traditional Christmas party: all retired members of the university are warmly invited to continue being part of the university community.

University tours: Rediscover Mittweida
Some memories begin as soon as you take your first steps across the campus. Others only come to life when you return. Our university tours invite you to retrace familiar paths, rediscover special places and experience how the university has evolved.
Amidst familiar buildings, new perspectives and fascinating stories, a simple stroll becomes a journey back to your student days and, at the same time, a glimpse into the future of HSMW.
