Berlin as a Centre of Research and Industry
Berlin is not only a great place to study but also to start your career.
Besides the Berlin and Potsdam universities and Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, one of the largest university hospitals worldwide, the greater Berlin area is home to an extraordinary number of outstanding research institutions, including several institutes of the Max Planck, Helmholtz, Leibniz and Fraunhofer Societies. All of these institutions offer marvelous opportunities for you to conduct Research Projects or to do research for your Master’s thesis. Moreover, many large pharmaceutical and biotech companies keep facilities in Berlin and its suburbs, and this city is also a hot spot for small start-ups. This setting fosters a strong network of collaborations.
