Social Sciences (German-French)
The Social Sciences (German-French) study program focuses on societal structures and processes. It is conducted in cooperation with Sciences Po Bordeaux. The bilingualism and focus on the German and French regions provide students with a high level of intercultural competence. In a group of 24 German and French students, the students alternate annually between the two universities, thus getting to know two academic systems with different focuses.
