In celebrating its 10th anniversary, FUBiS feels a special obligation to make its students’ experience as enjoyable and rewarding as possible. Next to the rigorous academic program taught by an international faculty, FUBiS offers special excursions to museums, memorials and political and cultural institutions; weekend excursions to Weimar, Dresden and Prague; a movie time showing popular German movies (with English subtitles); and countless other cultural activities. Students of the European Studies class (term I) will have the unique opportunity to go to Brussels and visit the European Parliament, NATO headquarters, and the Council of Europe.
From airport welcome and in-depth orientation to cultural immersion activities, FUBiS helps students to adjust to their new environment and make the most of their stay in Berlin.
