Study opportunities in Canada and the United States
The study opportunities in North America are as diverse as the
continent. The US university landscape alone consists of more than 4,000
universities. Many of them enjoy a very good reputation, which is repeatedly
confirmed in the large international rankings. The reputation results above all
from the high quality of the teaching and a pronounced service orientation. Each
student is provided with a consultant, the administration runs smoothly and the
professors are almost always approachable. The American university life is also
a unique experience for German students. The typical American campus resembles
a small town and offers everything you need for life from shopping, restaurants
and various leisure activities. The opportunity to improve your English at a
renowned university in the USA and to establish an international network there
make the country one of the most popular study countries.
But Canada's universities also offer high-quality study programs that are
highly practical. The country's bilingualism also enables students to improve
their French skills in addition to English. Another advantage:
A Bachelor's, Master's or PhD degree completed in the USA or
Canada is recognized worldwide.
For those who only want to spend part of their studies in North America,
there is the option to take part in a Study Abroad program or a summer
session. These short-term study programs offer one advantage:
the application process is greatly simplified. The summer sessions can also be
completed during the German semester break and some are even open to high school
students. A great option for anyone who wants to study in North America.
Mexico, Caribbean and Central America
The largest Caribbean island nation, Cuba, is the only country in North
America that is run as a socialist economy. Despite an ongoing
economic crisis, the small country impresses with its white sandy beaches, the
romantic capital Havana and an incomparable Caribbean lifestyle. Mexico,
located directly south of the USA, also scores with its dream beaches. Located
between the Pacific and the Caribbean, the country boasts 10,000 kilometers of
coastline, tropical rainforests, smoking volcanoes, cactus-strewn deserts and a
culture that is thousands of years old. The southernmost countries in North
America are the Central American states of Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, El
Salvador and Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama. They are endowed with Pacific and
Caribbean beaches, green rainforests and an incredible biodiversity. We would
have thought that studying in North America offers such diversity.
Study opportunities in Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America
If you want to get to know the cultural heritage of the Maya and Aztecs while
studying abroad, you are in good hands in Mexico. There are high-quality, internationally
recognized study programs at both state and private universities, which
are also open to foreign students. If you only want to take part in a language
course, you can orientate yourself further south. In Cuba, Costa Rica or
Guatemala, various private language schools offer courses that enable students
to improve their Spanish in a dreamlike, tropical environment.
