Facebook, Twitter & Co: The University of Erfurt in the social networks

[Translate to English:] Social Media

A university is a multifaceted institution, which is why we would like to give you exciting, clever, important, entertaining and sometimes surprising insights into our teaching, research and everyday life at the university.

In addition to our website, we also run blogs that focus on topics related to studies and science. The University of Erfurt is also represented in various social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and XING. We appreciate the possibilities of modern platforms and look forward to the dialogue with you. Follow us and stay informed!
