This thesis deals with the French and German higher education systems and their specific terminology and aims to find adequate German translations for French terms using terminological methods. These consist in a) defining the concepts of a specific knowledge field for each language, b) building up a concept system, i.e. describing the relations between the concepts in each language, and c) comparing the concepts from the two systems and finding equivalents. Thus, the German and the French higher education systems and their most important concepts, such as types of universities and degrees, are described first. After that, four French terms, which are taken from brochures of the IUT Robert Schuman in Strasbourg, are compared with German higher education terms and it is analyzed to which extent they are equivalent. For each type of equivalency, a different translation method is proposed.
