More about the University of Freiburg
The University of Freiburg is a public research university, particularly well-known for its degree courses in the humanities, natural sciences, medicine and social sciences. Just like the city of Freiburg, the university is committed to sustainable and environmentally-progressive practices and research. The University of Freiburg offers 22 degrees taught in English. It is part of the EUCOR confederate, along with the University of Strasbourg, the University of Basel and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.
As one of Germany’s leading universities, courses are heavily over-subscribed, which means all undergraduate admissions require a high standard of high school grades/diploma. Students at the University of Freiburg can engage in a wide range of extra-curricular activities including campus radio and outdoor leisure at the university’s own Schauinsland mountain retreat.
Tuition fees: Baden-Wuerttemberg
Internationals studying for more than one year in the German state of Baden-Wuerttemberg will have to pay a €1,500 tuition fee per semester.
