In General

Information about studying abroad is accumulated here. Whenever students encountered a lack of necessary information for preparing a semester abroad in the past, we welcomed them to publish their experience here for future generations.

The most common ways to study abroad are via the Erasmus Programm. (More information available at this site). However it is also possible to get in contact with the affiliated Department and organise an exchange year yourself without being bound to the other collaborating University. Many work groups have contacts abroad and offer studying opportunities abroad for (future) graduates and postgraduates. This is why all places with an established contact are listed here.

Please send reports, comments and suggestions to the Webmaster.

Preperation

Preparing a semester abroad should be done well ahead of time (roughly a year in advance). Information about collaborating universities can be acquired by talking to the Erasmuscoordinators of the faculty, Mr Anglin, or from Mrs Frey. They may also help you with filling the necessary paperwork (including online). Both the unit for international affairs of the faculty student council and the contacts listed below are open to answer any further unanswered questions.
