Study & Internship Abroad

Let's GO!

Every academic year over 700 students participate in international exchange, internship or study tours abroad. Meeting new people, experiencing new cultures and learning a foreign language are the main reasons for students to spend time abroad during their studies. In addition, an international experience broadens your horizon and contributes to your personal development.

Keep in mind it may take six to twelve months to take all necessary preparations for study or internship abroad, so you are advised to start planning well ahead of time. Always contact your faculty contact person for (programme) specific information about study and internship abroad.
