Study abroad

A stay abroad is a good idea. It strengthens flexibility and versatility, deepens and expands professional and language skills, and the exposure to a foreign culture opens up new perspectives, changes self-assessment and provides additional self-confidence. If you are thinking of going abroad for a while, please contact the Infocenter for Study and Internship Abroad of the International Relations Office well in advance. The staff at the Infocenter or the coordinators of the various exchange programmes can give many important tips and hints for planning your stay abroad.

Changed opening hours in July 2021

In July 2021, the Infocenter will be temporarily closed on Mondays.
