Karlshochschule International University – \u201cthe Karls\u201d for short – is a state-recognized <\/strong>privately sponsored, university of applied sciences in the state of Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg with study locations in Karlsruhe<\/strong>, Potsdam<\/strong> and Chemnitz<\/strong>. Since its foundation, the Karls has stood for an innovative, international and individual university education that empowers students for the future (Future Capabilities). Professional training, but also personal development and preparation for social challenges play a role here.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\n

Living internationality – shaping diversity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Karls is not only international in its aspirations, but also in its everyday life. Students from over 60 countries, courses in English, German and bilingual, a dense network of over 100 partner universities worldwide as well as integrated semesters abroad and international internships characterize the study program. We actively support our international students – from entry to language courses to cultural integration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, we offer students from Germany a platform to think and act globally: through regional studies, foreign language teaching, international exchange and an intercultural study environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical. Personal. Committed. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a university of applied sciences, our degree courses are strongly practice-oriented: through internship semesters, close cooperation with companies, project work and practice-integrated forms of study. In some degree courses, it is even possible to obtain a skilled worker qualification alongside your studies. This creates a close link between theory and practice – with very good chances of being taken on after graduation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small learning groups, individual support from experienced professors with a practical background and a hybrid teaching model (combination of lectures, seminars and tutorials) enable a course of study that can be flexibly adapted to the student’s life situation – whether full-time or part-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Education with attitude – career with responsibility<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our degree programs combine business, society, technology and culture in an interdisciplinary way. The focus is not merely on imparting knowledge, but on promoting the ability to reflect, innovate and think critically. We believe in diversity, co-creation and responsibility – individually, entrepreneurially and socially. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Karls, we promote personalities. Our understanding of education is based on the concept of future capabilities<\/em> – the ability not only to react to change, but to actively shape it. Our graduates are ready to make their way in complex, uncertain environments – whether in medium-sized companies, international organizations, the cultural sector, start-ups or completely new areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Individual paths to university – and beyond<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you have a high school diploma, university entrance qualification, vocational qualification or international school-leaving certificate – Karls offers a variety of access routes and accompanies students every step of the way. In addition to Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees, we also offer study models that combine professional qualifications and academic training. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our students learn to navigate complex, uncertain environments, recognize opportunities, act wisely and take responsibility – for themselves, for others, for organizations and for society. They acquire professional expertise and interdisciplinary skills such as resilience, innovation, teamwork and the ability to reflect. After completing their studies, they are not only ready to start their careers, but also for further education – be it a Master’s degree, a doctorate or lifelong learning. And we accompany them – step by step. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/details>\n\n
