Ed­u­ca­tion through sci­ence

Founded in 1419, the Uni­ver­sity of Ro­s­tock is a mod­ern com­pre­hen­sive uni­ver­sity, where some 13,000 stu­dents from over 70 coun­tries en­joy a wide range of more than 100 courses at nine fac­ul­ties. Its courses in en­gi­neer­ing, physics and med­i­cine in­deed rank among some of Ger­many’s best. And when it comes to re­search, the uni­ver­sity fo­cuses on in­ter­dis­ci­pli­nary re­search in the fields of ‘life, light and  mat­ter’, ‘mar­itime sys­tems’, ‘the age­ing of the in­di­vid­ual and so­ci­ety’, and ‘knowl­edge – cul­ture – trans­for­ma­tion’.
