Klett Gruppe
“The founding of DUW was a logical development for the Klett Group, which is dedicated to learning regardless of place or time, at the student’s individual speed. We have set a milestone with the new university, and have gained a new segment devoted to lifelong learning with its innovative study concept. The combination of Freie Universität Berlin, internationally recognized as an outstanding university, and the Klett Group, an educational company with activities throughout Europe, sets an example for quality in teaching and research that will be influential in higher education in Germany and abroad.”

Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Ernst Klett AG
