Our English-taught courses offer a wide range of multidisciplinary subjects that put the green focus of the university into context. The courses provide the opportunity to learn about the many facets of sustainable thinking in various disciplines. The emphasis is on processes, technologies, management, and soft skills in relation to the sustainable management of natural resources. In addition to the subject modules, you also have the opportunity to take English, German and other language classes at various levels at the Language Centre.

The courses are aimed at international exchange students in particular. Do you have the required academic background and a keen interest in green matters?
