What should you study?

Obtaining an academic qualification from a university is a very good starting point for a successful career. Because ever more specialised knowledge is being demanded, there are over 260 subjects in all conceivable disciplines offered at FAU.

This is because FAU is a comprehensive university. In other words,  it is possible to study subjects in any of the major disciplines at FAU, namely the humanities, theology, law, economics, medicine, natural sciences, information technology and engineering. Whether you choose to study Advanced Materials and Processes or Dentistry – the possibilities are endless. You will find a list of all available degree programmes on the study portal.

If you need assistance with selecting your degree programme, you can take the interest test on the MeinStudium platform that will provide you with an initial selection of the kind of courses that might be suitable for you.

Depending on the subject you decide to study, you will be based either in Erlangen or Nuremberg. And because several major global businesses are also based in the region, there are many opportunities for internships, student jobs and later careers. There’s no better preparation for the future.
