Study abroad
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzStudying abroad opens your eyes to other cultures and educational systems and thus offers a wealth of experience. Language skills can be improved almost effortlessly along the way and your own CV will also benefit from a temporary stay abroad.
If you are a student and would like to find out about opportunities and modalities before you start studying abroad, you can contact
- the International Office of your university or
- the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) in Bonn
in Bonn.
The procedure for studying abroad depends on the university in question. As a rule, you apply for a place at a foreign university by a certain deadline. Therefore, please contact your International Office in good time.
Contact your supervisor for international affairs at your faculty or institute or make an appointment with your International Office.
Alternatively, the German Academic Exchange Service can also answer general questions about studying abroad.
Most universities state that attending a counseling interview or an information event is a condition for applying for a foreign study place.
