Since the fall semester of 2007/08, the University of Regensburg has opened its doors to students in their final years of high school and from the Berufliche Oberschule (vocational high school) as part of the “early studies” program.
Since then, motivated, high-performance high school students have the possibility of attending university events, and, should they choose to do so, of earning program achievements which can count toward a degree program they may start after graduating from high school.
This means that a degree program they may do later on can be shortened, or it can free up time for stays abroad or to attend interdisciplinary events, for example.
