   How it compares

   Germany has 326 universities, and this one sits in the public applied-university segment rather than the research-university mainstream. Its profile is broader than a single-subject school because it combines business, health, media, humanities, and arts programmes, which may suit applicants who want more than one study direction in the same institution.
