University of Augsburg in Germany

Launched in 1970 as a reform university, the University of Augsburg is now firmly established in the Bavarian and German education and research landscape. The most recent milestone in its dynamic development in 2016 was the establishment of the Medical Faculty. In 2020, the university will celebrate its 50th anniversary.

The University of Augsburg is a comparatively young university. It was founded in 1970 by the Free State of Bavaria as a “Reformuniversität”( Reform university). The university has successfully used the associated opportunities to develop dynamically and orientate its own profile to the challenges of the present and future.

Initially concentrating on law, economics, social sciences, and the humanities, the University of Augsburg has continually added and developed promising fields of natural and technical sciences. Since the establishment of its eighth faculty, a medical faculty, the university offers a complete spectrum of subjects and study programs.
