Location and Staff
Situated entirely on one central campus, the university is located south of Regensburg's inner city on a small incline south of the River Danube, and directly adjacent of the A 3 autobahn. The university itself consists of 150 hectares (280 acres) of land.
Including the affiliated university hospital, the University of Regensburg has approximately 4,200 employees including 312 professors, and teaches about 16,000 students. The university's reputation and attractiveness is enhanced by the 2,000 year-old town of Regensburg, its scenic countryside, the Donautal (Danube Valley), modest living costs, a high density of bars and the nearby heights of the Bavarian Forest. Brisk cultural life both in the city and on campus provide great recreational opportunities, enhanced by a number of nearby lakes.

Famous quotes containing the word staff:
“Man, in spite of his tendency towards mendacity, has a great respect for what he calls the truth. Truth is his staff in his voyage through life; commonplaces are the bread in his bag and the wine in his jug.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
