Trier University of Applied Sciences

[EduCativ]

About 7,200 students are enrolled at our three campuses in Trier, Idar-Oberstein, and Birkenfeld, which marks our institution as one of the largest universities of applied sciences in Rhineland-Palatinate. Thanks to our border region located in the Southwest of Germany, we offer ideal conditions and prepare our students not just for careers in Germany but also in Luxemburg, France, or Belgium. Considering this wide range of international employment opportunities on our doorstep, we offer a diverse selection of degree programs in technology, business, law, Design, and computer science. Sustainability and environmental awareness are at the core of the degree programs at the Environmental Campus Birkenfeld, where around 2,200 of our students study. This also encourages intensive and interdisciplinary cooperation between different disciplines there. More than 50 students are enrolled in the Fine Arts degrees of gemstone and jewelry design at our campus in Idar-Oberstein (Bachelors and Masters).
The study, teaching, and research lie in the responsibility of seven different faculties. The fields of Business Studies, Computer Science, and Engineering and Technology are located at the campus Schneidershof in Trier. The faculty of Design is located at three campuses: Irminenfreihof and Paulusplatz in Trier and Idar-Oberstein. The Environmental-Campus Birkenfeld is home to Environmental Planning/Environmental Technology and Environmental Business Studies/Environmental Law.
The university is governed by its president, who is also the external representative. Two vice presidents support the president. The university consists of decision-making bodies with members who have been elected in free, equal, and secret elections. The student body is represented in the students' parliament (StuPa – student council). The student council elects the general students' Committee (AStA).
Trier, Germany's oldest city, is a vibrant and modern city. More than one-fifth of its citizens are students (Trier University and Trier University of Applied Sciences).
Currently, approximately 8,000 students from over 70 nations study at one of Trier University of Applied Sciences' three campuses. These are located in Birkenfeld, Idar-Oberstein, and Trier. Our main subject areas include Business Studies, Computer Science, Design, Law, and Technology.
We offer bachelor's, Dual bachelor's, and Masters's degrees and courses in continuing education, such as distant learning courses and certificates.
Our offices and departments assist prospective students, students, and alumni. Advisory services and information events are offered on all matters related to degree courses, career options, equality of opportunity, gender equality and reconciliation of family and working/student life, scholarships, foreign exchanges, and entrepreneurship.
The "Studierendenwerk Trier" supports students in finding suitable accommodation, runs the cafeterias, organizes cultural and social events, and offers tickets for public transport, free museum entries, and theatre.
