Partner universities

The University Alliance Ruhr (UA Ruhr) is part of the Goethe-Institut's Studienbrücke program. The three universities - Ruhr-Universität Bochum, TU Dortmund University and the University of Duisburg-Essen - are official partner universities of the program. This gives prospective students from abroad the opportunity to be specifically prepared for studying at one of the three UA Ruhr universities and to start a Bachelor's degree course directly.
