Abstract
This paper will discuss how an NFC enabled university campus can provide a wide range of user-friendly advanced services for its students and staff. These services combine information sources related to teaching, room reservation, social networking, proximity sensing, information collection and exchange, calendar services, event notifications, ticketing, loyalty cards, payment and more. In the ongoing NFC City Campus trial the usage of NFC enabled mobile phones, SIM cards as secure elements, and an adaptive infrastructure supporting information integration, demonstrates how NFC can contribute to the development of user friendly advanced services.
