U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

Students acquire knowledge on how to analyze problems on a local and regional level and develop appropriate solutions. Links to practice are an important part of the program. Measurements are taken in the field using state-of-the-art technology such as terrestrial laser scanning, and then analyzed in the geography laboratory and processed using geographical information systems. The KU offers students a modern degree program with individual support and small working groups. The degree program builds on the research focus areas in Physical Geography at the KU.
