University of Berlin

Founded in 1810, the Humboldt University became a model for the classical integration of teaching and research. The HU serves a student body of 30,000 with courses beyond the liberal arts in fields like archeology and anthropology and in critical languages like Chinese and Arabic. A four-week intensive language course precedes all programs and housing is arranged by the University. The German placement exam is on-line (www.hu-berlin.de)
