Studying at H-BRS means:

  • Practical relevance

Our degree programmes are practice-oriented. This means there are not only lectures. There are also many practical courses. There you can apply what you have learnt yourself.

There are also many student activities. Students who have similar interests meet up there. They try out lots of things together.

Diversity is very important to us. Everyone is welcome here.

We also welcome students from other countries. H-BRS has many partner universities abroad. You can study there for a semester abroad. But the reverse is also true: many international students come to Germany for a semester. They spend their international semester at H-BRS.
