​FREIBURG

Program Type: IP; yearlong

Are the people of Freiburg so cheerful because their city gets more sun than anywhere else in Germany, or have they been rewarded with so much sunshine precisely because they are so good-natured? It's hard to say. But what is certain is that life is good in Germany's southernmost city

Freiburg is a vibrant and cultural university city. It is a good base to explore this region with day trips to the nearby spa towns and the numerous nearby hiking opportunities. Located on the edge of the Black Forest, it is known for being in the sunniest corner of the country.
The Universities of Baden-Württemberg program is associated with the State of Baden-Württemberg, which is in Southwest Germany and is home to world-renowned universities. The first University College in Germany was established in Freiburg, as the region has a long-standing, tradition of research and higher education, dating back to Early Modern Humanism and notable figures. The University of Freiburg has attained many distinctions for its excellent research and teaching that testify to its status as one of the premier universities in Germany.
