University of Bonn

As one of only eleven Universities of Excellence in Germany, we are the only of our peers with six Clusters of Excellence. Recent decades have seen us produce more winners of the Nobel Prize and Fields Medal than any other German university. The University of Bonn has a 200-year history of combining excellent research in a range of disciplines with research-led teaching.

The University of Bonn was founded almost 200 years ago and is considered to be one of Germany's and indeed Europe's most important institutes of higher education. As the home of learning to over 35,000 students, we enjoy an outstanding reputation both at home and abroad. 

The University of Bonn is one of the world's leading research-based Universities and therefore it is no surprise that we operate on an international level. We particularly specialize in the fields of research and teaching and this has led to our evolving into the position of a truly prominent international institution.

The Bonn Graduate School of Economics (BGSE) invites ambitious students from around the world to join our graduate programs in economics.

At the BGSE, you will have the chance to study and do research, entirely in English, in a supportive and intellectually demanding environment. We foster a cooperative team spirit among our student body.
