Semester abroad at a partner university
We have about 100 partnerships with colleges and universities worldwide where you can study for one or two semesters on exchange. Among them is a whole series of universities with fee-free places where you can spend your semester abroad within Europe as part of the Erasmus+ program. In the Asian region, too, there are no tuition fees at the partner universities, in contrast to Saxon countries (USA, Australia, New Zealand).

Short stays abroad
The decision to stay abroad does not have to be a decision for a long period of time. HERE you can learn more about the possibilities for shorter stays abroad. Per academic year 3 participants* in e.g. a Summer School in Europe can be supported with 500 € each from Erasmus+ funds. 

Intercultural Preparation
We regularly offer intercultural training for students planning a semester abroad. Please note the announcements by mail or on our news page.
