On February 18, 2025, the official go-ahead was given for the construction of Campus Chiemgau in Traunstein. Lord Mayor Dr. Christian Hümmer, District Administrator Siegfried Walch, Science Minister Markus Blume and other high-ranking representatives from business, politics and administration celebrated the laying of the foundation stone on the former railroad station site. CSZ, responsible for the structural design and planning of the excavation pit shoring, was also on site.

• Future-oriented university location.
  The Chiemgau campus will house modern learning and central buildings on a total area of 5,450 square meters by 2028/2029. A three-storey student residence for 40 residents is already planned for fall 2025. The aim of the project is to promote young talent in the region and retain it in the long term in order to strengthen innovation.
• Economic stimulus for the region.
  In addition to creating new jobs, the Campus Chiemgau will promote the networking of business and science. By focusing on key technologies such as digitalization, automation and robotics, the campus will contribute to the further development of regional industry as a driver of innovation.
• Innovations and strong partnerships.
  The project is being realized in close cooperation with the Rosenheim University of Applied Sciences, the Traunstein Chamber of Industry and Commerce, the Chamber of Crafts and the district of Traunstein. These partnerships promote the integration of research and business. The partners sealed their joint path with the symbolic insertion of wooden blocks into the foundation stone. CSZ is delighted to be part of this forward-looking project and will report on progress.
