University of Potsdam
The University of Potsdam is conceived as a small university. Its motto is: Small but excellent. Presently approximately 16,000 students study in the various departments of the University of Potsdam, including about 1,300 foreign students from more than 85 countries. Five faculties form the pillars of the institution. They are the Philosophical Faculty, Humanities, Law, Economics and Social Sciences and the Natural Sciences-Mathematics Faculty. With the establishment of supra-faculty, interdisciplinary areas, the University of Potsdam places special emphasis on areas beyond the teaching and research activities of the individual institutes. These fields include for example the Geo-Sciences. Proof of the quality of the research carried out at Potsdam University is the steadily increasing funding through industry and other third parties.
