In Germany we have two distinct college types: Universities of Applied Science (polytechnic) and Universities. They both offer bachelor’s and master’s degrees; however, they do differ in their curriculum and the expectations of their graduates. Universities of Applied Science have a practical attitude whereas Universities clearly prepare for a career in research. There are way more lab classes and programming sessions in the University of Applied Science.
