Tips for parents

to #experiencingFUTURE

Dear parents,

Is your child about to decide where to go to university?

If you are looking for a medium-sized university that offers extraordinary courses, high quality teaching and an affordable cost of living, Furtwangen University is the right place for you.

We know that deciding on a degree programme and a university is complex and that there will be many questions which have to be answered. This parents page aims to help answer some of these questions for you, and help you to support your child.

Our university may be relatively small, but we have a lot to offer!

Accreditation and quality assurance

As a university of applied sciences, our degree programmes are subject to the same state accreditation and quality assurance procedures as universities. The degrees (bachelor's and master's) are equivalent and meet the requirements of the Bologna Process, which guarantees international recognition.

Real-world relevance and preparation for continuing education

We attach great importance to linking theory and practice. This is ensured by compulsory practicals, internships semesters and project-oriented teaching methods. Those with a bachelor's degree from HFU, can take a master's degree at any type of university. A university of applied sciences' master's degree also entitles students to do a doctorate, in some cases directly, or in partnership with another university.
