Why study at a university?

At a university like FAU, knowledge isn’t just imparted, but also generated. This is what makes it different to a vocational college. The professors and lecturers at FAU are not only university teachers, but also researchers, and many of them are among the best in their fields. Our students reap many rewards from this; they are always supplied with the latest insights in lectures and seminars, they can contribute directly to projects as student assistants and then can even use their work on projects as material for their Bachelor’s or Master’s theses. In short: our students are simply closer to the source.
