Wismar University of Applied Sciences is also an important provider of distance learning majors, undertaken by its online branch WINGS-Fernstudium, which mainly offers non-off-the-job majors. Students can take exams at various teaching locations in Germany and Austria, as well as at other locations around the world such as the Goethe-Institut. The school's curriculum ranges from continuing education in special programs such as esports management to traditional master's programs such as economic engineering.
Not only does Fernuniversität in Hagen provide online learning courses, many physical universities now also have virtual learning majors in their plans. For example, the Free University of Berlin offers an online master's degree in international relations, and students at the University of Freiburg can study for a master of science in solar energy engineering online. Many online courses at brick-and-mortar universities are designed for foreign students and are therefore primarily taught in English.
