Voices of our Students

What makes University of Bayreuth special for me is the wide range of interdisciplinary programmes and interdisciplinary research opportunities it offers. Apart from the unique interdisciplinary aspect, the University also provides students ample extracurricular courses and activities, for instance the language courses and their corresponding 'Stammtisch', numerous student societies etc., to help balance out study time and spare time. Studying at University of Bayreuth has given me a complete University experience and has helped me strengthen my professional competence for the future.
