Studying in the Greater Region
Universität der Großregion (UniGR)
Studieren mit europäischer Dimension
The RPTU is a member of the cross-border association "Universität der Großregion – UniGR a.s.b.l."
During their studies at RPTU, students can regularly attend individual seminars, lectures and other events at five other UniGR partner universities in the Greater Region and earn up to 10 ECTS credits per semester or 20 ECTS credits per year. Under certain conditions, you can have the coursework completed at the partner universities recognised at RPTU and thus give your studies a European dimension without having to spend an entire semester/year abroad.
The UniGR mobility guide for students explains how and under what conditions it works. The UniGR databaseprovides an overview of the study programmes offered by the six UniGR universities. Students also have access to the libraries (free book loans!), canteens, language courses and cross-border events organised by the partner universities.
In addition to the RPTU, the following five universities are members of the "Universität der Großregion – UniGR":
- Université de Lorraine (Nancy/Metz, France)
- Universität Luxemburg (Luxembourg)
- Université de Liège (Liège/Arlon, Belgium)
- Universität Trier (Trier, Germany)
- Universität des Saarlandes (Saarbrücken, Germany)
