University in Germany
University College Freiburg (UCF) is the central institution for international and interdisciplinary teaching at the University of Freiburg. Its main project is hosting the first public English-language Liberal Arts and Sciences program in Germany. UCF students follow a four-year bachelor program consisting of 240 ECTS credits, and graduate with either a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts. UCF serves as a lab for innovative teaching approaches and instructional design. 
Curriculum.
Of the 240 credits needed to graduate, 56 are core courses, 120 are in a student's chosen major, and 64 are electives. Most core courses are taken in the first year of studies, covering academic skills, philosophy, and responsible leadership. Later core courses include philosophy of science and further academic skills. First year students are also required to take introductions to three of the four offered majors. Students are able to major in life sciences, earth and sustainability sciences, culture and history, and governance. Electives can be taken at UCF, in the greater University of Freiburg, or during studies abroad. Electives can also be taken in the form of internships and self-directed practical projects.
Most of UCF's courses have some element of interdisciplinarity to them. Some courses explore an already-established interdisciplinary subject, like political ecology. Others look at contemporary problems through a combination of disciplines. Others still may teach specific academic and technological skills needed in different disciplines, or require assignments to consider information from more than one field.
Student Life.
Students at UCF are represented by an elected board of twelve student office holders. These students are elected once per semester and act as the link between the student body and different university staff. The board meets at weekly student council meetings, and at larger general assemblies twice per semester. Alumni are a part of a subgroup within the greater University of Freiburg alumni association. 
UCF is home to a range of funded student interest groups. The college hosts a magazine publishing group, a 3D printing group, an arts collective, and an Model United Nations team. Other groups host environmental seminars, cultural discussions, and camping trips.
