University of Lubeck

The University of Lubeck is a small public university in Lubeck, northern Germany, founded in 1964 as a medical academy. It focuses on medicine, life sciences, computer science and medical engineering, and shares its campus with a site of the University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein. Some master's programs are taught in English, while medicine and most bachelor's programs are in German. The city's medieval old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and public universities in Schleswig-Holstein charge no general tuition fees.
