University of Applied Sciences Emden/Leer
Our university of applied sciences is located at the very top of Germany in the Northwest. You can study there on the North Sea coast, where others go on holiday.
We are a small but excellent campus university – with our Emden Campus, the Maritime Campus Leer and the Business Campus Leer. For you that means: short distances and a personal and manageable atmosphere in which to study. You study in a university community where all university members can find their place. We don't want to be a sterile place that just teaches the curriculum but a lively campus with public discussion and academic discourse. And the goal of our efforts is one thing above all else: that you will find everything you need for your education here.
