City & region

Kiel. Live and work in the city on the sea. With all the advantages of a major city and urban charm. With a strong and growing economy and outstanding science. With excellent transport links, attractive and family-friendly districts, a diverse cultural scene and beautiful Baltic beaches. Where the sea reaches right into the city centre, where the seagulls shriek and where others come on holiday.

Look out across the sea while you work, study or conduct your research. That is what makes the CAU what it is - a high quality of life, security, all surrounded by beautiful landscapes. Science is what drives Kiel’s development and the university enjoys a close working relationship with the city. Together, they develop the location. High-profile universities attract highly-qualified workers and teachers to the area, and they produce well-educated young talents. Research, teaching and the transfer of knowledge and ideas bring this growing city to life and make it a very attractive and innovative place.
