Offers for pupils

The pupils of today are the students of tomorrow. For us at the University of Bayreuth, this is reason enough to offer young people from Upper Franconia and the northern Upper Palatinate a lot today. We aim to help them find the right field of study for them.

In order for young people to get a better overview of the subject areas and fields of study offered, the University of Bayreuth hosts, among other things, taster lectures, open days, counselling sessions, and numerous other interesting events. Above all, however, there is also the possibility of early study. You can find an overview of all the offers related to school on the following pages.
