Universities, the classical approach to academia and research remain the highest and most prestigious institutes world-wide. Technical universities or hochschule, as Germans call them, focus mainly on technology and engineering valuing not only the art of theory but also the art of practice. In fact, the emphasis in these institutions is on the practical skills their students will gain during their studies. Colleges of fine arts, film and music focus mainly on engaging rare talents in their environments, therefore there are special admission requests in order to enroll in such institutions. Last, but not the least Universities of applied sciences regard to applied social sciences and humanities. In Germany it will commonly take a two year program to finish the Masters degree meanwhile PhD programs commonly last up to three academic years.

Mandatory Health Insurance
In Germany you are obliged to have health insurance in order to reside in the country.
