Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau

Albert_Ludwigs_Universitaet-Freiburg_im_Breisgau.

Teaching, learning, research have now belonged in Freiburg for almost 550 years. The city in southwestern Germany is one of the most traditional university locations. The university is in the heart of the city – not only geographically. Although the humanities traditionally play a major role at the university, it actually offers a broad range of courses with more than 60 subjects taught in 11 departments. Furthermore, courses are of exceptional quality, as top rankings – not only in the higher education league table published by Der Spiegel – demonstrate. The university is among the top centres for German studies, medicine, history, law, sociology, dentistry and English studies. Academic excellence is nothing new in Freiburg: 10 Nobel Prize winners, including Friedrich August von Hayek, worked here, as did Walter Eucken, the founder of the Freiburg School of Constitutional Economics. Students are attracted to Freiburg not only by its academic excellence, but also by the city’s quality of life. It is the warmest place in Germany, and the Black Forest, Alsace and Switzerland are on the doorstep.
