Join Us in the Greater Region: Studying, teaching and researching without borders
In the Saar-Lor-Lux-Wallonia-Rhineland-Palatinate Greater Region four countries, with their individual languages and cultures, are neighbors and bring the European idea to life.
In order to fully benefit from the opportunities of living, learning and researching together, seven universities in Belgium, Germany, France and Luxembourg have joined forces to create the “University of the Greater Region”/”Université de la Grande Région” (UniGR):
Thanks to this network, more than 140,000 students, over 7,000 doctoral students and approximately 10,250 teachers and researchers receive advice, logistical support and, in some cases, financial support in planning and implementing cross-border activities in the Greater Region.

Interested in topics and fields of knowledge that are not currently covered by lectures at your university? Do you want to think outside the box without having to move for a whole semester? As an UniGR student, you can take courses at the htw saar in person, as well as online and receive up to 10 ECTS credits at your home university.

We recommend that doctoral students from a UniGR partner university contact the Doctoral Advisory Service at the htw saar if they are interested.
