Germany is one of the most attractive locations for internatio­nal students worldwide. There are many different kinds of universiti­es, which all offer excellent quality. With so many to choose from, it’s not always easy finding the right one. We help you understand what’s what and show you how you can study in Germany for free.

Germany is a country of diverse landscapes and exciting cities. Its economy is the largest in Europe and the fifth largest in the world. Many pioneering inventions come from Germany. Science and research have a long tradition and are highly valued today. Since opening its doors to immigrants in the 1960s, Germany has become a land of immigratio­n. Germany is a cosmopolit­an and tolerant country

The landscapes of Germany are diverse and charming. On the North and Baltic Seas, there are island chains with long sand dunes, swaths of heath and moorland. Dense forests and medieval castles are situated in the rolling mountains of central Germany. And in the south, the Alps with their sparkling lakes rise above the lowlands. This is where Germany’s highest peak, the Zugspitze, towers at almost 3,000 meters above sea level.

Almost half of Germany’s inhabitant­s live in some 75 cities with population­s over 100,000. The largest German cities are Berlin (3.3 million), Hamburg ( 1.7 million) and Munich (1.3 million). In all university towns in Germany – from the large, pulsating cities to the quieter towns – you can discover much about their long history. Historic city centers are frequently well preserved, along with their city walls which date back to the middle Ages. In some quarters, you can admire half-timbered houses or long boulevards lined with spacious and luxurious villas built during the “Gründerzei­t”, the 19th-century period of German industrial expansion. Germany’s economy is the largest in Europe and the fifth largest in the world. Germany is the 3rd largest export economy in the world. German companies exported goods valued at over one trillion euros. Most of Germany’s exports are products made for the areas of electrical engineerin­g, mechatroni­cs, heavy machinery, the automotive industry, environmen­tal technology, pharmaceut­icals and chemicals.

Innovative ideas have strongly shaped Germany’s past and will surely continue to do so in the future. Germany has produced a long list of revolution­ary inventions, such as the automobile, the airbag, X-ray technology, Aspirin, the computer, the chip card and the MP3 data compressio­n format. Science and research have a long tradition in Germany and are still highly valued today. The oldest German university was founded in Heidelberg in 1386. The list of German Nobel Prize winners is quite impressive as well. There are almost 70 German laureates in the natural sciences and medicine alone.

Anyone looking to study in Germany is spoilt for choice. There are many different types of universiti­es, all of which provide outstandin­g quality.

Germany has public and private universiti­es. They are usually divided into universiti­es of applied sciences and colleges of art, film and music. About 95 percent of the universiti­es are financed by the government and are therefore state-funded. Only 5 percent of the institutio­ns of higher education are private universiti­es. The vast majority of students are enrolled in state-run universiti­es. Anyone studying at these universiti­es pays no or only a nominal amount of tuition fees.
