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 .

The bachelor studies provide a basic understanding of all subareas of chemistry with specialization in colloid and polymer chemistry and polymer technology. The course qualifies students for tasks in research and development in the chemical industry, especially in medium-sized companies. Also, it qualifies for advanced chemistry-related masters or doctoral studies. A characteristic feature is the early contact of students with industrial practice in the field of polymers and colloids.

Basic competences in both practical and theoretical computer science are taught. Elective courses offer sufficient opportunities for in-depth study. The range of courses in computer science is supplemented by courses in mathematics, in the application subject as well as in the field of general studies. Primarily the terminology and methodology of an application subject are imparted, so that computer scientists acquire general competences in application-related work, which can be transferred to other fields of application.

Der Masterstudiengang befähigt Studierende, durch das Erlernen analytischen Denkens und des Identifizierens und Strukturierens aktueller ökonomischer Probleme, adäquate Lösungskonzepte überall dort zu entwickeln, wo gesellschaftliche, unternehmerische oder persönliche Ziele nicht im erwünschten Umfang verwirklicht werden. Interdisziplinarität bildet einen weiteren Eckpfeiler des Studiums. Absolventen müssen über ihre eigene ökonomische Perspektive hinaus denken.

Der Bachelorstudiengang soll die Studierenden mit den Mechanismen, Problemen und Strategien des Wirtschaftens im internationalen Umfeld vertraut machen. Im Mittelpunkt stehen hierbei vor allem volkswirtschaftliche Veranstaltungen. Im Spezialisierungsbereich besteht die Möglichkeit soziologische, ethnologische oder auch religions- und kulturwissenschaftliche Veranstaltungen zu wählen. Die Ausrichtung ist somit interdisziplinär, wenn auch das Fundament vorwiegend ökonomisch ist.
