Information is the key to the modern knowledge-based society. And it is education that is the key to benefit from progress in society.

Thuringia has a broad selection of outstanding educational institutions so that the population can keep pace with today’s information society. From elementary school to universities up to future careers, you’ll find the right training for your needs in Thuringia.

The "Bildungsmonitor 2011" – a recent study comparing the educational systems of Germany’s 16 states with regard to educational justice and economic growth – has ranked Thuringia second. The focus on the so-called MINT subjects (mathematics, informatics, natural sciences, and technology) contributed largely to this excellent result. In addition, the individual support of young people and a great variety of day-care facilities make Thuringia a leader in education.
