Nearly half the German population resides in 85 towns with a population of more than one million. A lively, multicultural scenario exists across all the habitation centers. A “Studentville”, which often can be found in a historical part of a town, is a place where students can find everything that their heart desires, like, live music, bookshops, and rented vehicles. About one hundred years ago, half of all students who were studying abroad, were actually enrolled into German universities. Germany, till date, remains a major hub for all those who are keen on getting a world-class education and training in their specific fields of interest. The oldest university in Germany is the Ruprecht Karls University Heidelberg, founded in 1386. Apart from this, other institutions of higher education also have a long history of academics spanning through several centuries.
One academic year in Germany, consists of two semesters, namely, The Summer Semester and The Winter Semester. Each semester lasts half a year and contains two parts, the lecture period and the lecture-free period. In the lecture period every lecture and class takes place at university. In the lecture-free period, the End-of-Term exams take place and it is even possible to take up an internship project or to work, one can also simply enjoy one's holidays. At university or at the German language institute there are different kinds of lectures, ie. The Normal Lectures and Seminars. The Normal Lectures are main part of the studies in most of the programs. The professor speaks in front of the students about the various important topics. On the contrary, in the Seminars, there is an exchange between the professor and his or her students and in exercises the students can apply their theoretical knowledge in their practical projects.
