Study structure

In Angers, students can begin their studies at their home university from September, in Kassel from October of each year. Students from Angers/France come to Kassel in their second year of study. Kassel students are required to spend the 5th and 6th semesters abroad at the partner university in Angers.
The modules are prescribed, which is why the results can be transferred to the German grading system.
