The University of Europe for Applied Sciences (UE) operates across campuses in Berlin, Hamburg, and Iserlohn, offering programs in English and German for students aged 16 and above. It was formed by merging BTK University of Art & Design and BiTS University of Business Leadership.

UE focuses on an interdisciplinary, practical education that blends creative, digital, and entrepreneurial thinking. It prepares students for careers in design, business, psychology, media, sports management, and art. Key features include small class sizes for close faculty interaction and a strong emphasis on developing professional skills, with a high graduate employment rate.

The university provides modern facilities such as creative studios, a 3D lab, TV and radio studios, research centers, and career support services. Admission requires a secondary school certificate, an IELTS score of at least 6.0 for English-taught programs, and an interview.
