General information about Studying Abroad

In some cases it is possible to go on exchange in the 2nd semester of your study programme. Due to deadlines and preparation time, this is only possible if you apply for an exchange in the last year of your Bachelor's programme or if you contact the International Office Humanities in May prior to the start of your studies at the latest. We can then look at which destinations are still available. You also need approval from your programme coordinator and the Board of Examiners.

Keep in mind that it may not be possible to go on an exchange without any risk of delay in your studies. This is dependent on several factors, such as the destination you wish to go to and how you can schedule your courses.

Specific information for Humanities

How does the selection process work? 

For faculty-specific destinations selection we determine your suitability based on your academic background, language proficiency in the language of instruction and chosen courses if applicable. We always start with the first choice. In the event of more applications and equal suitability, we will allocate the places by drawing lots.

Request approval by Board of Examiners

Do you know which partner university you will be attending and have you enrolled in courses there? Then you need to request approval from the Board of Examiners for all the courses you will be taking.

Other activities abroad

Besides an exchange or internship, there are several other possibilities to go abroad within the framework of your studies. You can think of summer and winter schools, or source or field research as part of your thesis.
