Thinking without borders.

Did you know that a quarter of the doctoral researchers at our university are from abroad? However, it is not just our young scholars who are international. Our campus hosts students, instructors, and researchers from more than 100 different countries.

The University of Bayreuth is known for its bi- and multi-lateral dual degree programmes. Equally popular are its Summer School and courses taught in foreign languages. The University is also involved in a variety of research projects with international partners and offers joint doctoral degrees in cooperation with several foreign universities. These are all offshoots of our internationalization strategy, which received a favourable review in an extended audit conducted by the German Rectors' Conference (HRK) in 2012/2013.
