The University is dedicated to excellent study conditions and encourages innovative ideas. With the slogan »Study with an international outlook – at home and abroad!«, the University kindly invited its students to submit proposals for positive changes and new campaigns in the IDEAS COMPETITION FOR STUDENTS 2019.
