Your studies abroad in Europe

You have the opportunity to study one or two semesters abroad at one of our partner universities within Europe. In doing so, you will advance your studies and at the same time gain valuable experience abroad.

ERASMUS+

The Erasmus programme of the DAAD can support you during your studies abroad in Europe by providing structured handling of your stay and financial assistance.

Further advantages:

You do not have to pay tuition fees for the 'reserved' places at our partner universities.
You receive a monthly grant from Erasmus.
The recognition of study modules is usually unproblematic.

FAQ Partner universities Integrated Semesters Abroad

How do I proceed?

Choose a partner university cooperating with your department at which you would like to spend your studies abroad.

Tentatively register your intention with the International Office by submitting a declaration of intent

for a summer semester - by 1 September of the previous year
for a winter semester - by 1 March of the same year

If possible, you should also choose modules that fit your studies, usually in the amount of 30 ECTS per semester. Please note that some modules are only offered in the summer semester, others only in the winter semester.

Tip: It becomes especially easy if you choose an "Integrated Semester Abroad" (ready-made package incl. recognition).

Please initially follow the schedule of the International Office to be nominated for a study abroad programme at one of our partner universities.
Then follow the application process of the respective host university.

Application deadlines:

for the following summer semester - from 1 September
for the following winter semester - from 1 March

Note: If there are more applications for a partner university than available places, the ECTS number achieved so far determines the order of nominations.
