...Therefore Study in Marburg!
Excellent Supervisory Relationships
The manageable size of the department allows for a very pleasant and personal atmosphere. This means, among other things, that you will get to know all the teachers very quickly and the teachers will get to know you after a short time. You will usually attend specialization lectures and seminars together with 15 to 20 students.
Training of the Ability To Abstract
During the degree program abstract thinking skills and logical thinking will be trained. The students learn to identify their abilities and limits. You will acquire methods to develop solutions to previously unknown and unfamiliar problems.
Freedom in Structuring Your Studies
Students have a lot of freedom in their choice of specializations. Optionally, it is possible to choose a profile area in the amount of 18 CP, in which skills of another scientific discipline are learned. A semester abroad can also be integrated into the curriculum.
'Other Cities Have a University, Marburg Is a University'
Philipps-Universität Marburg is not only one of the most traditional German universities, but also the oldest Protestant university in the world. Research and teaching have been conducted here for almost five centuries. The city and the university accordingly form an inseparable unit. Marburg offers a historical environment, but at the same time beams with many pubs, restaurants, cinemas and the lawns on the banks of the Lahn, which are used extensively by students. The manageability and familiarity of the city and the university, as well as their student-friendly climate, are also reflected in the department.
Thus, the university offers you a rich spectrum of possible profile areas, but also many other offers beyond the study program, e.g. in the field of sports or in the Studium Generale.
