Stuttgart doesn´t rest on its laurels in terms of education. Since March 2009, for example, numerous Bachelor´s degrees in the areas of business, technology and social services have been offered at the first practical orientated college in Germany, the Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg Stuttgart.
The Bibliothek 21 library on the future Mailänder Platz square will turn the public library into not only a cultural learning center, but also a highlight in terms of urban building. Traditional educational facilities don´t have to hide in shame. With their broad range of continuing education possibilities, adult evening classes attract many people hungry for knowledge to the 4,500 classes per year. The oldest university in the city, the University of Hohenheim, has an excelent reputation worldwide, especially in the area of agricultural sciences. Naturally, the Stuttgart media world has superb possibilities for training and continuing education in this area, with the Staatlichen Akademie der Bildenden Künste, the Hochschule der Medien and the Baden-Württemberg Film Academy.

Language schools in Stuttgart |
 Stuttgart is the home of people from 170 nations who can converse in 100 different languages. Migrants form about 40 percent of the population of the Swabian metropolis, the highest proportion among all large cities in Germany.
These numbers clearly show that Stuttgart is a city with cultural diversity and international flair. However, the high immigration rate also means that the state capital is obliged to intensively promote the German language. A good knowledge of German is required for successful integration.

International schools in Stuttgart |
|
Multicultural Stuttgart is also well ahead in terms of foreign languages. As early as 1st grade – as is the case throughout Baden-Württemberg – English or French can be found on the timetable. It’s also worth looking at bilingual classes, with English, French or Italian as a second language.
If this isn’t international enough for you, you have the option of sending your offspring to prepare for the International Baccalaureate Diploma at the International School of Stuttgart (ISS) or the Swiss International School (SIS) in Fellbach (close to Stuttgart). The ISS is 100 % English-language while the SIS prefers bilingualism and also provides German high school leaving certificates.
