Cologne
University of Applied Sciences
Cologne University of Applied Sciences, also known as
Fachhochschule Köln (CUAS), was founded in 1971
and is well-recognized by German employers for its department
of Business Administration and Management. In 1995 the
department was ranked 14th out of 120 German-speaking
universities reviewed by Germany's Manager Magazine.
CUAS is located close to the city center of Cologne near
the banks of the Rhine River.
Cologne, Germany
Köln (spelled Cologne in English) is an interesting
and lively city, the fourth largest in Germany. This cosmopolitan
city is home to more than a million inhabitants. Köln
has a university town feeling with about 80,000 students,
too. Just about everywhere you can see examples of the
cultural and historical treasures from the city's 2,000
year history. For example, the city's most famous landmark
is the Köln Cathedral with two spires over 157 meters
high. The view from the top is worth the climb. Köln
provides accessible transportation within the city, country
and throughout Europe with more than 1,200 train arrivals
per day in its main railway station. Modern high-speed
trains link Köln with London, Paris, Amsterdam, Hamburg
and Berlin at hourly intervals. |
