In Germany there are mainly two types of Institutions for Higher Education.
Universities (including Universities of Technology): Such universities are research oriented and can award PhD degrees.
Universities of Applied Sciences: These are practice –oriented and cannot award PhD degree. Courses mainly offered by these universities are engineering, business administration, social sciences and design. These have collaborations with the industry players.
