European Summer School in Bielefeld – what happened so far

The first Summer School at Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences (FH Bielefeld) took place in May/June 2009. Since then, 180 students have come to us from the United States (Northern Michigan, West Florida, East Stroudsburg/PA), Canada (Regina/SK, Winnipeg/MB), Mexico, Europe (France, Hungary, Finland, Turkey, Italy, Poland, Czech Republic, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland) and Asia from the Near East to the Far East (Jordan, India, South Korea). In addition to professors from Bielefeld, about 50 external lecturers from our partner universities offered courses. They came from the Netherlands, Spain, United States, India, Mexico, Czech Republic, Finland, Turkey and South Korea. In cooperation with our International Office, an attractive study and cultural programme has been set up. The European Summer School has found its special place among the international activities of Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences.
