History
It begins in Eichstätt with the medieval cathedral school and reaches its first academic peak in the 16th century with the Collegium Willibaldinum. The Collegium is the first academic seminary founded north of the Alps as a result of the Council of Trent.
Education
We consider our University as a place of excellent research. The KU provides its researchers with outstanding working conditions. Fundamental research and science with a practical orientation are assigned equal status. The KU actively supports the promotion of early-career researchers and offers them ample room for their scientific qualification.
The academic freedom at the KU simultaneously presupposes a high degree of social and environmental responsibility. Thus, ethical reflection on the means and consequences of scientific activity is an essential part of the work of KU researchers.
Research
Research at the KU is multifaceted and reflects the whole range of research topics and subject areas at the KU. Research takes place at all chairs and professorships as well as in special research institutions.

I've made friends for life here!
The university is very informal, which means you quickly make friends. You receive good support quickly. The professors are also very friendly and supportive. The choice of online and on-site courses is good.
Media tech mini‑uni
Highly interesting degree program at a small university with a friendly, family-like atmosphere. The buildings dedicated specifically to the program are modern and equipped with the latest technology in radio and TV studios, as well as lending equipment like cameras and recording devices.
Hands‑on degree with projects
I highly recommend this university. The courses are great and you can choose between many different areas of studies. Also, the professors are great and you have many hands-on lessons. Of course, some classes you just have to take and they might be not as great as the rest but overall everything was great. The projects are also really cool and you don't have so many exams, more so projects.

Student services
To make sure that our international students feel comfortable after their arrival and during their stay, our Welcome Teams organize field trips and events and a Buddy Program, so that every international student has a KU student at his or her side to support them in everyday life.
Housing services
The International Office supports you finding accommodation and offers a free Housing Service.
You can register for our Housing Service as part of your online application. Afterwards you will receive a housing offer from us – if possible taking into account your preferences.
Accommodation arranged by us usually has to be rented for a whole semester (6 months) or for a whole academic year (12 months) – depending on how long you study with us. Shorter rental periods are rarely possible.
Library services
All locations of the University Library offer you a calm, concentrated learning environment. You can research literature and work with it at classic library workstations in the reading rooms. PC workstations provide access to our digital media such as databases, electronic journals or e-books.
ICT services
A KU e-mail address for each student and member of staff, wireless internet access on campus, computer work stations in eight PC pools, a cloud for storing files on the KU’s servers, free software – all this and more is provided by the KU’s Data Center.
Medical services
Just as for studying at any other university in Germany, a prerequisite for enrolment at the KU is a valid health insurance. EU citizens are usually insured through the health insurance in their home country, but this often only includes emergency treatment abroad. Travel insurance is rarely sufficient for enrolment.
Campus life
In addition to the central activities in research and teaching, university life is characterised by a wide range of cultural and social events and offers. Sustainability, family friendliness and commitment are the main characteristics of life at the KU. Do you want to get involved in one of our groups or participate in university sports? Would you like to sing in one of the choirs or join one of the ensembles and bands, or do you enjoy theatre? Here you will find everything about university life at KU.
Sports facilities
Regular exercise helps prevent disease and improves physical fitness and well-being. The area around Eichstätt is great for outdoor activities, but the KU’s Sports Center also offers plenty of opportunities to get active with over 120 sports and fitness courses – from A for aerobics to Z for zumba.
