In addition, our campus is home to the Max Planck Institutes for Polymer Research and Chemistry. With degree programs available in more than ninety subjects and in numerous combinations, the range of courses we offer is extremely wide and covers all areas, be it the humanities, social studies, law, economics, or medicine. Moreover, the integration of the Academy of Fine Arts and the School of Music is unique in the German landscape of higher education.
