Campus Management

The Campus Management department supports all phases of the academic lifecycle with the help of integrated IT systems – from the application for a place to study to the administration of courses and assessments to the creation of certificates. In addition, technical solutions are provided for related areas such as e-learning, evaluation or accreditation.

Campus Management is responsible for the operation, administration and further development of the IT systems required to support these (administrative) processes. All affected coordination and decision-making processes are accompanied from the beginning in order to ensure the technical feasibility of the decisions made and to be able to plan the resources required for this.

Campus Management supports the users of the systems and offers training and supporting materials (user guides, etc.). Decision-making processes within the university are supported by evaluations and statistics of various kinds.

Overview of the Campus Management systems

myCampus

myCampus is Leuphana's new, integrated campus management system. It will replace the outdated software modules for the application and admission process, student management and examination management. In addition, it will combine as many functionalities as possible that are currently distributed across different software and platforms.
