Universities in Hamburg that teach in English
Are there any? If so, where?
Im a 19 year old American moving to Germany and I would like to go to a University in Hamburg but I have one major issue. I need the University to teach in English as I do not speak much German at all. If anyone has any suggestions of a University in Hamburg that teaches in English that would help or any place that the subway goes to thats is close to Hamburg that would be wonderful. If there are no Universites in Hamburg that teach in English does anyone know the steps that I need to enroll and a regular University and spend about a year learning German and have a full student visa. Thanks a ton
Just curious to know why you expect universities in Hamburg (Germany) to teach in English language (the locals speak...)
I dont have a very high expectation but I heard from another player in the team I am in here in germany that there is a university that teaches in English and I was hoping that was true.
International University Bremen is a possibility
Check out http://www.daad.de (there's an English site, too, but I can't remember if it's .org or .com). You can do a search for either graduate or undergraduate programs taught in English ("International" programs) throughout Germany.
Jacobs University (formerly International University Bremen) - http://www.jacobs-university.de - is entirely English-language-based.

I know someone who studied engineering or aviation (or something complicated like that) in Hamburg, and the whole course was taught in English.
Get a German-speaking friend to check out websites with you and you should find something.

Most likely the Technical University in Harburg.

Yes, there are some 'international' degree programs with English as a/the language of instruction, though most of them are at the Master's level.
The DAAD websites--daad.org and daad.de--are worth a visit!
For example, you can search here: http://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienange...s/07535.en.html
Here's a link to a search to get you started--57 Bachelor's programs in English with no German language test admissions requirement:

Also, what is your educational background? You have a high school diploma, I assume. Anything else?
There are special requirements for admission to German universities. In Germany, there are multiple types of secondary school diplomas/degrees, and international students have special requirements to meet.

Thanks for all the help you all, going to get someone to help me read through some things and hopefully it will all work out.
After reading through the info, if you have specific questions or want help with the German on Anabin, feel free to post or PM.
I imagine the best way to learn a new language would be to be immersed in it, and that includes studying too. If the course is academic it would probably be tough, but something like graphic design or fine art would be easier if taught in German.
Why do you want to study in English? I've heard that some universities do cater for this but the costs for studying are much, much higher.
I'm moving to Hamburg in a few weeks and if I am unable to find work within a few months was considering studying again, and would relish the challenge of doing so in German!
Good luck with whatever you end up doing mate.
