Why choose Goethe

Goethe University Frankfurt is among the top international research universities and offers a wide variety of academic programmes. Today, the university is one of few in Germany to receive public funding alongside maintaining administrative autonomy and the ability to create a private endowment.

It is a world-class research university with a strong commitment to interdisciplinary approaches, Goethe is particularly well regarded for its work in medicine and physics as well as highly applicable contributions to economics and business.

Students at Goethe benefit from studying and living in Frankfurt with plenty of opportunities to learn and practice speaking German as well as living in one of the top ten most liveable cities in the world.
