Town and University
Student life in a city of spectacular beauty
Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993, Bamberg is one of the most beautiful towns in Germany: With its Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings, it is an architectural gem. Nevertheless, it is an affordable city. Aside from its relatively low living costs and a thriving student community, Bamberg offers an abundance of cultural events and recreational opportunities, including a lively music and club scence. Bamberg is a town of amazing contrasts. It has a distinct regional identity, but is simultaneously home to a diverse community of German and international students. It is nestled in the Franconian countryside on the one hand, yet easily accessible by rail or car from Frankfurt, Munich or Nuremberg on the other. 
Nuremberg's international airport is only 60km away. Even major capital cities such as Berlin or Prague can be reached relatively easily by rail or car. For more information about these features and other aspects of Bamberg, check out the following link to the city's official tourist office.
Great support and facilities
The University of Bamberg is a public university with an enrolment of approximately 12,400 students. Political Science in Bamberg benefits from a very favourable staff-student ratio, allowing us to teach moste courses in relatively small groups. When studying Political Science in Bamberg, students will be taught by a number of scholars with a reputation for international excellence, who are committed to offering and developing an outstanding learning experience for students from all backgrounds. Some of our faculty have taught at universities outside Germany and will understand the particular concerns of foreign and visiting students. A number of our modules are routinely taught in English. Last but not least, the University provides students with excellent library and computing facilities. For modules currently taught in English, please following this link.
International Profile
Political Science at Bamberg welcomes students from abroad, either as 'regular' students on a full programme or as visiting (e.g., Erasmus) students for a shorter period. The University's International Office provides an excellent infrastructure of advice and support for students interested to read Political Science at Bamberg. In addition, we support the International Office's efforts in Political Science: a dedicated lecturer (Dipl.-Pol. Johanna Rapp) is responsible for international programmes and will be more than happy to advise you, if you have any queries. Political Science at Bamberg is committed to offering modules in both German and English to international students. In addition to our regular programmes, we are in the process of creating some strategic partnerships with a select number of excellent universities abroad. As a result we are already able to offer an international Double Master's degree with Aston University in the United Kingdom. Our portfolio of partner universities will be expanded in due course. We anticipate starting a further Double Master's programme with the University of Tiblisi in the near future. These programmes will give students from our partner universities access to the programme at Bamberg and will, in the longer term, internationalise the student learning experience for all of our students at the University of Bamberg.
