Bamberg is a lovely pretty little village-but it is no Munich. Nightlife is limited but that did mean that we made firm friendship groups and you basically new everyone when you went out. Good location to travel from-skiing in Austria, Prague, Munich. Was excellent for a semester but after that you may want a bit more!

Yes - bureaucracy is a real pain, and all offices seem to close at midday.

Get all the info you think you'll need before you go, but don't worry - organisation there is brilliant. Make the effort to talk almost exclusively in local language. Will never have a similar opportunity as well. That said, make sure that you mingle with EVERYONE. You are guaranteed to make friends with people from all continents, if you are open and friendly and make the effort.

I think being totally clueless when I arrived added to the experience.

Most people when they decide to go to Germany want to go to Heidelberg or Tuebingen. Bamberg is a much better choice. There are fewer Americans - so you have to meet people from other places. Also, the office of foreign students is very active and takes the foreign students on great trips (skiing, Lake Constance, etc.). The German instruction is fantastic, and the city is truly one of the most beautiful in Germany. I recommend Bamberg with absolutely no reservations!

“Great possibilities for studying abroad”
Manette T
Germany, Undergraduate
Business Studies, 2021
Overall
I received so much help before, while and after going abroad and that during the pandemic. This university has so many partner universities all over the world, it is truely amazing.
The professors in this university are really knowledgable about their topics, however, some do not have that much skill at teaching. But that is not a bi issue, as all the other students are really nice and in group work everything is possible.

“Good place to study, difficult to find a job”

Overall
I am an international student, studying "International Software System Science" in English. The course offers many subjects and teaches you the upcoming technology. Professors are interactive and easy to contact.
And the city is breathtaking with the scenery.

Final comments
It is good to check up in advance which courses you can compensate in your university. Trips organised by "Akademisches Auslandsamt" are highly to recommend.
