Your student life in Cologne, Mainz, Potsdam, Aachen, Brühl, Solingen & Neuss

You can look forward to a vibrant, exciting, and inspiring campus life and student life - at the respective CBS campuses in Cologne, Mainz, Potsdam, Aachen, Brühl, Neuss & Solingen as well as in the cities themselves. The campus life is characterised by common goals as well as the pulsating rhythm of lectures and events. A good atmosphere on campus contributes to successful studies. At CBS, we attach great importance to this, for example through many events, student initiatives, and offers of support that helps you relax and make your life easier. At CBS campuses, campus life also benefits from an international atmosphere. Many students come from abroad, many study programmes are taught in English and most study programmes include a semester abroad during which you get to know another campus and another country. Which helps in strengthening your intercultural skills.

Student life off-campus provides an important balance between concentration and relaxation. At first glance, Cologne, Mainz, Potsdam, Aachen, Brühl, Neuss & Solingen seem quite different, but all three cities have an exceptionally high proportion of students, which makes student life particularly interesting. Find out here what to expect on campus and in the city where you are studying.
