"I chose the Augsburg Summer Program as I wanted to expand my knowledge in private international law. The program was exactly what I expected it to be. All professors are taking modern approaches in their way of teaching and give us only the essential information about their subject. However, if you want to receive a detailed answer you will be always welcome and the professor will encourage your interest. I made connections that I hope will last for a long time throughout my career."

"The program not only helped me develop a much stronger understanding of international law, but it also undoubtedly strengthened my understanding of the US legal system by encouraging nuanced comparative discourse within a highly diverse pool of professors and other program participants from around the globe.

"Participating in the Augsburg Summer Program is a great opportunity and one that I have recommended to many of my friends who want to grow within this field.

Moreover, participants get the opportunity to get to know other students from all around the world, and to discover the Bavarian culture. [...] I loved that the professors all come from different countries and backgrounds, which offers the students new perspectives."
