The town of Cottbus is situated in the eastern part of Germany, and campus is a five minutes walk to its main commercial centre. It is a beautiful green city laced with chains of parks and landscaped gardens, promenades and tree-lined avenues. It's also ideally situated for weekend excursions and day trips, being equal distances from the German capital of Berlin as well as the famous city of Dresden. Poland and the Czech Republic are also just around the corner! International Exchange students may attend one semester or a full academic year abroad. The deadline to apply is December 31 for the summer semester, and June 30 for the winter semester. The summer semester starts March 31 and ends July 8. (Please keep in mind that the German academic calendar does not coincide with that of UNO, so those students wishing to study abroad for only one semester may find it beneficial to attend the "summer" semester at BTU).
