Kiel is the university in Schleswig-Holstein offering a spectrum of subjects sufficiently wide to serve the requirements seeking university education within their own federal state. At the same time, its clear academic profile and areas of specialization reflect a determination to accept the challenge of national and international competition among universities. The Bachelor and Master study courses contribute to this: They create a balanced European Higher Education Area with comparable study structures and qualifications. Course-related examinations provide for a continual assessment of performance and lend structure to time spent at university. An agreement has been reached with the sports associations for supporting top athletes in their studies. There is also an emphasis on involving families, in particular students and staff members with children, thus helping the university to promote harmony between the family and professional work or study, in accordance with the ideal of a »family-friendly university«.
