Research is conducted in English. At the end of the program, students submit a report and present their research at the UROP Colloquium.

Students also take an intensive German course and participate in workshops on intercultural learning, scientific methods, and research practice in Germany. Students are greeted in Germany by their RWTH buddies who are friendly faces available to help during the first few days and throughout the program.
