Why American Students Are Flocking to Germany

@dfbdfb No. For example, RWTH Aachen is technically a “hochschule” (thus the H in its name) and is the largest technical university in Germany and ranked #2 in Engineering (after TUM).

Hochschule is not at all like CC in the US. (That’s not to say that all of them all high quality, there’s a range just like anywhere else.) For all intents and purposes they are universities and that’s why they use the word “University” in their English names.
