UE – STUDIES FOR CREATIVE MINDS

UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES EUROPE: PRIVATE AND STATE-ACCREDITED

“When speaking of universities, my first thought is always of overcrowded lecture halls. At UE it is a different story: small groups of students really get involved with each other as well as with their professors to develop new ideas and concepts.” 
Michael Biedowicz, Bildchef ZEITmagazin
