The Bavarian university sector offers both students and staff high educational standards, a wide range of academic choice and an up-to-date organisational framework. In recent decades, Bavaria has developed from a predominantly agrarian state into a top-notch international location for science and research. Its attraction lies in the fact that Bavaria welcomes international students and has much to offer them.

 

If you come to Bavaria, you find vibrant towns and cities on the one hand and delightful countryside ranging from the low mountains of northern Bavaria to the Alps and magnificent lakes of the south on the other. Not for nothing is Bavaria the most popular German state among tourists from all over the world. Nature provides almost unlimited opportunities for active leisure pursuits: skiing and swimming, hiking and mountaineering, adventure sports, and simply enjoying nature. Bavaria also has more than its fair share of cultural highlights to offer: the world-famous royal castles of Linderhof, Neuschwanstein and Herrenchiemsee, internationally renowned art galleries and museums such as the Pinakothek der Moderne gallery of modern art and design and the Deutsches Museum in Munich and the New Museum in Nuremberg, numerous music festivals throughout Bavaria, theatres large and small, and modern multiplex cinemas: everywhere in Bavaria you will experience culture that is alive – for every taste, for every age-group, and at or within easy reach of every university location.
