Students can explore undergraduate and postgraduate options, subject to the admission requirements of individual programmes. Applicants who do not meet the direct-entry requirements for a bachelor's degree may also have foundation-study options available.

SRH University Strengthens Its Focus on Indian Students

Ajith Mohan, Director for India at SRH University, said the institution aims to help Indian students gain international exposure while developing skills relevant to employment in a global environment.

He highlighted the importance of combining academic instruction with practical learning so students can understand how their knowledge translates into workplace applications.

Oana Lelcu, Global Strategy Director at SRH University, said the university intends to integrate academic learning with practical competencies, international perspectives, artificial intelligence and industry engagement. She also outlined plans to develop Leipzig as an additional core campus, with a focus on biotechnology from 2028.

These plans form part of the university's wider approach to developing its academic portfolio and learning infrastructure.

Berlin and Heidelberg Remain Key Campuses

SRH University has identified Berlin and Heidelberg as its flagship campuses, offering broad selections of English-taught programmes. Leipzig, Dresden and Gera will continue to operate as core locations with selected English-language courses.

According to the university, concentrating resources on its main campuses is intended to expand programme choices, strengthen student services and improve access to housing assistance and career guidance.

For international students, campus location, programme availability, accommodation and career support remain important considerations when comparing study options in Germany.

Indian Student Enrolment in Germany Continues to Grow

Germany has become an increasingly popular destination for Indian students pursuing higher education abroad.

According to the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), 59,419 Indian students were enrolled at German higher education institutions in the 2024–25 academic year, compared with 28,905 in 2020. This represents more than a doubling of enrolment over the period.

Engineering and related fields, along with social sciences, economics and management, are among the subjects attracting Indian students to Germany. The trend provides important context for universities seeking to attract students from India.

SRH University says more than 2,000 Indian students are currently enrolled across its programmes. It identifies engineering, computer science, information technology, data science, business administration, MBA programmes and supply chain management among popular choices for Indian applicants.

As the 2026–27 winter semester gets underway, the university says its international community comprises nearly 10,000 students representing more than 140 countries.
