FUBiS is the International Summer and Winter University of Freie Universität Berlin, an intensive, short-term academic program that takes place three times a year: once in winter and twice in summer. Students can choose between German language courses and subject courses held in English and German that take place on-site in Berlin. Some courses in the summer terms can be combined with each other, allowing students to tailor their schedule according to their interests. For their achievements students receive ECTS credits which they may count toward their degrees at their home universities.
Students from all over the world participate in FUBiS, creating an international environment which promotes the learning and use of intercultural competency skills. Participation in the FUBiS program is an academic, cultural and personal enrichment for students.
