edit

The University offers English and German based education with levels from undergraduate to graduate. Bachelor, Master and certificate programs are available in fields like design, music, fine arts, animation 2D/3D, object design, banking & finance, international management & economics, sustainable energy systems, to list a few from the other variety courses they offer.[8][9][10]

Beginning with Winter Semester 2018, the university announced that students can now study yodeling. This announcement drew press coverage due to its association with the German term Jodeldiplom, a term for a useless or vanity-driven degree.[11][12] At the end of the course of study, the students will be awarded a Bachelor of Arts in music.
