Leuphana University Luneburg

In the course of its reorganisation in 2006, Leuphana introduced a university model unique to the German academic landscape. By spring 2009 the following new academic schools had been established:

College: Award-winning bachelor´s programme providing a variety of perspectives

A college at which students can obtain their first academic degree: since 2007 the Leuphana Bachelor’s program has been offering a homogeneously structured and interdisciplinary oriented programme of study. It is targeted toward students who are interested in more than specialised knowledge and who enjoy working in an independent and responsible manner.

Graduate School: Combining interdisciplinary master’s degrees with doctoral studies

Since 2008, the Graduate School offers master’s programmes with specialization in the following three thematic fields: Governance & Law, Humanities & Social Sciences, Management & Entrepreneurship, and Education. The study model of the Graduate School offers graduate students the opportunity to intertwine their master’s studies with doctoral studies. Furthermore we offer doctoral candidates from all over the world the opportunity to work and research in a vibrant, interdisciplinary environment.

Professional School: Continuing education and business outreach for professionals and corporations

The school offers programs for continuing education and optimal conditions for lifelong learning (since 2009). The Professional School is geared toward working with adults who are interested in furthering their educational goals – ranging from those who have just joined the job market to senior managers.
