Description
Europa-Universitat Flensburg is located close to the German-Danish border and is the northernmost university in Germany. It is innovative and international, and offers programmes in many important fields of social and environmental policy. The cooperation with the University of Southern Denmark adds an intercultural flavour to the university's atmosphere and enriches the study options. Due to the compact campus and the small number of participants in the individual programmes, students and staff can interact closely.Unique in Germany, our modern campus site provides facilities which fulfil the highest technical and multimedia requirements. As part of this, the university campus with its landscaped surroundings, its student dining hall and the lecture theatre complex is generously equipped with Wi-Fi access. This means that wireless internet access is possible from every location within the university. The Europa-Universitat Flensburg also offers a wide range of attractive leisure and sports activities. There is a fitness centre fitted with state-of-the-art equipment. The courses on offer range from indoor cycling, aerobics, karate, aikido and taekwondo to water skiing, sailing and surfing. In a joint assessment exercise conducted across all German universities by the Centre for University Development (CHE) and "Stern" magazine, the sports courses offered on campus by the Europa-Universitat Flensburg were evaluated as "top quality".
