From Feb. 10 to 14, 2025, all students in the third and fourth classes of all majors will take part in the educational trip with destination Berlin.
THE DESTINATION
BERLIN
Berlin is a capital city rich in history but also a modern metropolis where the most diverse realities coexist in perfect harmony: the rich Berlin of business and finance; the Berlin of history and art, boasting prestigious museums and an ever-living cultural ferment; the alternative Berlin that reinvents urban spaces, with trendy clubs taking over former factories and degraded areas; the multicultural Berlin, a kaleidoscope of colors, scents and flavors. Visitors are drawn into the dynamism of Berlin and its artistic and cultural charm without forgetting the wounds that the Cold War caused, leaving deep traces. Related to those dramatic events are some of the city's most famous tourist attractions, such as the famous Wall and Checkpoint Charlie checkpoint, which should be visited with care and respect. Major tourist attractions include the Brandenburg Gate, the Palace, of the Reichstag, Alexanderplatz, and the Berliner Dom.
