Watch the recording of our online information session about the Study & Internship Program to Germany, which we recorded on Sept. 15, 2020 together with UAlbany Study Abroad.

Due to the corona pandemic, not only in Germany has the university system predominantly gone virtual, universities have significantly expanded their digital teaching and learning offerings. This increase in digitalization is also to be anchored in international university cooperation projects. To this end, the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) will fund the joint project "UAS7 Virtual Academy" led by Bremen City University of Applied Sciences. The total grant amount is 250,000 euros.

David Driscoll studied abroad at HAW Hamburg in 2009 as part of the UAS7 Study and Internship Program. Today he works as a Senior Designer for the Peter Schmidt Group in Munich. But it all started with a glimpse of his German heritage in 1997.

Two UAS7 universities reach top positions in the global university ranking "U-Multirank". The Bremen City University of Applied Sciences performs particularly well in the areas of transfer and cooperation, while the business administration and economics programs at Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences achieved top marks in the "Contact to Work Environment" category.

The application period for fall 2020 degree programs has started at most German universities and universities of applied sciences. Here’s how you can apply as an international degree-seeking student - and some aspects to consider in times of the Corona crisis.

Whether it is Business Administration, Economics, Business Law, Business Informatics or Engineering, at UAS7 universities business and economics students are particularly satisfied with their studies. Those departments were awarded top ranks in the most recent CHE ranking. Business studies and Social Work courses fared particularly well.

In an interview with UAS7 intern Inga, she looks back at her experience in Hamburg.
