You are at a stage in your lives - and a very important one - where you are shaping your future. Perhaps you are wondering: which is the right university for me? What do I even want to study? I would like to add one more question: why should I study at Humboldt-Universit?t zu Berlin?

Humboldt-Universit?t is one of more than 100 universities located in Germany. Berlin alone has four universities and many other higher education institutions.

We are one of Germany’s top ten universities for research. This means exciting, research-based teaching for your studies.
