academic
'akademisch' and 'studentisch' both belong to the area of universities or colleges. However, 'akademisch' refers to the scholarly world as a whole: colleges and universities, research, teaching, or a scholarly style. It can also mean that a question is very theoretical and has little to do with practice. 'studentisch' refers only to students: their life, their groups, their work, or their interests. Learners may confuse the words because both occur in a university context. In practical terms: a conference can be 'akademisch', while a shared apartment or initiative is more likely to be 'studentisch'.
