There
are three main types of institutions of higher education:
- Universität:
A German university focuses on traditional areas such as the humanities,
the natural sciences and the social sciences. Universities also tend
toward theoretical approaches and tend not to be involved in applied
subjects.
- Hochschule:
This type of institution prepares students for work in particular professions
through courses of study with a view toward applying what they have
learned in a work setting.
- Berufsakademie:
This is a newer and unique form of higher education that combines academic
and career and practice-oriented education. Using a different calendar,
students alternate a term of classroom study with a term of work experience,
completing their degree in three years.
The
following institutional placements will be available through the Baden-Württemberg
Program. Each institution has its own area of strength.
