What is the LAS program all about?

Liberal Arts and Sciences (LAS) at University College Freiburg is an approach to education, not just a program name.

LAS is a four-year, English-taught, interdisciplinary Bachelor program. It reaches across academic fields while also offering discipline-oriented academic training in one particular Major (120 ECTS credits). Students choose their Major after their first year of studies:

  1. Culture and History
  2. Governance
  3. Life Sciences
  4. Environmental and Sustainability Sciences

The Core (56 ECTS credits) is shared by all LAS students. It encompasses basic and advanced academic skills, reflections on knowledge and science, and a curriculum on Responsibility and Leadership.

In the Electives (64 ECTS credits), students can choose from a variety of courses and projects to further shape their educational profile.
