"For my year abroad, it was important to me that I come to a university where community is important. At PTH Brixen, there were coffee breaks and excursions with students and professors after exciting lectures. Friendships developed that have lasted until today."

Sarah Seifen (Mainz) is an editor.

Andreas Hahne

"The decision to study in Brixen for a semester was particularly influenced by recommendations from former students. I appreciated the personal atmosphere in the lectures and beyond. Some lasting friendships were formed during this time."

Andreas Hahne is a priest candidate in the Diocese of Aachen.

Philipp Fiala

"For me, a semester abroad at the PTH Brixen meant: studying where others go on holiday! In addition to the wonderful atmosphere in the mountains of South Tyrol, I was also attracted by the good mentoring relationship between students and teachers, but also by the lively culture of discussion within the College community."

Philipp Fiala, a priest candidate in the Bishopric of Aachen, continued his theology studies in Rome after the semester abroad at the PTH Brixen.
