We offer a wide range of academic programmes and an ideal environment for inspiring young minds

Every fifth student on our Saarbrücken and Homburg campuses is an international student. With students drawn from more than 120 nations, Saarland University is one of Germany's most international universities. Whether you're interested in Ancient Civilization Studies or Quantum Engineering, as an international applicant you can study any of the many Bachelor’s or Master’s degree programmes available – provided of course that you meet the requirements for your chosen programme of study. All of our Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes are officially accredited, which guarantees the high quality of the academic programmes offered and ensures an excellent environment for teaching and studying in all academic disciplines. Saarland University also offers a range of higher education preparatory courses and other programmes specially designed for our international applicants.

No matter whether you're coming from a country within the EU or from outside the EU, whether you acquired your school leaving qualifications in Germany or abroad, and no matter whether you're already proficient in German or still need to improve – all the information you need to understand the admission and enrolment processes (including the preliminary review documentation procedure) can be accessed from our information portal for international applicants.
