Comprehensive universities (Gesal11thochschulen) The comprehensive universities developed on the basis of merging a university, teacher training college, Fachhochschule and, to a certain extent, college of art and so making one institution. Consequently, comprehensive universities offer students even greater choice during their studies in respect of degree courses and degrees.
Other institutions with university status: These include the Medical and Veterinary Institutions of Higher Education in Hanover and the Medical University in Lebeck as well as the Medical Academies in Dresden, Erfurt and Magdeburg.

Such universities are, for example, the Protestant Ecclesiastical Colleges, the Catholic Philosophical-Theological institutions of higher education and the institute for Jewish Studies.

Moreover there are a few private universities. In particular, these offer economics and medicine, but with a different subject weighting and educational orientation than that at the state-funded universities. The private universities generally charge study fees.
