Studying International

You want to go abroad during your studies and you are interested in intercultural exchange? Find out about the various options here!

The Faculty of Business, Economics and Social Sciences offers you numerous opportunities to study abroad during your studies. As the dean's office of the faculty, we are responsible for an attractive range of exchange options and are continuously developing them further. We cooperate closely with the Office of International Affairs, the central point of contact for international affairs at the entire university.

ERASMUS+

You want to spend a semester abroad in Europe?

You can either study at European partner universities with which the Dean's Office of the Faculty of Business, Economics and Social Sciences has an Erasmus+ cooperation or try your luck as a "free mover" at other universities. All important information is offered by the Office of International Affairs, which provides organisational support for your stay abroad.

Multiple Degrees

Do you want to orientate your entire degree program internationally?

If you are particularly committed and have a strong learning ability, you can acquire 2-3 European degrees during your studies with a multiple degree programme. At our partner universities you will gain experience abroad, intercultural skills and language skills that will significantly improve your chances on the job market (both nationally and internationally).

Most programs require English language skills at B2 level and, depending on the destination, French language skills at B1 or B2 level. Beginners' knowledge of the local language is desirable but not a prerequisite.

Partner Universities and Networks

As a student of the faculty, you benefit from our international contacts and partnerships. We constantly maintain and expand our international profile to ensure an attractive range of courses.

Therefore, we are, for example, a member of the HERMES higher education network and in the process of international accreditation by the AACSB.

HERMES ("Higher Education and Research in Management of European Universities") was founded in 1997 as a European university network to promote cooperation in research and teaching. In the meantime, 26 renowned universities worldwide belong to it, which practise scientific exchange together and offer multiple degree programmes.

The AACSB ("Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business") is the most important international accreditation for business faculties. It was established in the USA in 1916 to guarantee the highest quality of teaching. Today, it facilitates the international comparability of university degrees and thus the recognition of your academic achievements at other universities in Germany and abroad and gives you advantages on the job market.
