Otto Friedrich Universität Bamberg - University of Bamberg
(Outgoing Program)
The beautiful city of Bamberg, home to Otto-Friedrich-University Bamberg and a UNESCO World Heritage site, sits nestled in northern Bavaria. Its charming medieval-era architecture and urban layout keep dishing up its “special sauce.” Intellectual powerhouses Hegel and Hoffman once lived there, world-renown Bamberg Symphony Orchestra thrives there, and its tradition of lively beer gardens and superb local breweries continues to this day. Seven hills surround the city and offer numerous opportunities for hiking. Overall, Bamberg is a superb city in which to immerse yourself in German culture and language, while befriending both German and international students.
