Information for Outgoing Students

On completion of their first year of study, students can use the Erasmus+ Programme to study at a university in another participating country, so extending their social and cultural competence and improving their professional prospects. In the process, they come to know the academic structures of a foreign university and the methods of teaching and studying prevalent there.

The programme offers financial support for study periods abroad in all participant countries.

The Merits of a Period of Study Abroad

• academic recognition of all courses successfully studied abroad;
• waiving of tuition fees at the host university;
• financial support helping to cover the additional costs incurred abroad;
• support in the preparatory stage (in matters of culture, language and organization);
• special allowances for students with children;
• special allowances for students with disabilities.

New Regulations in Erasmus+ since Project Year 2014

• It is now possible for a student to receive financial support more than once in any one study cycle (Bachelor, Master, Doctorate).
• In each cycle, up to twelve months’ financial support can be granted.
• In one-cycle courses of study (Staatsexamen, Diplom etc.) up to 24 months’ financial support can be granted.

With Erasmus+ students can spend study periods abroad in the European programme countries during each phase or cycle of their studies:

• up to twelve months in each of the Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral phases or 24 months in one-cycle courses of study (Staatsexamen etc.);
• periods of study abroad in Europe of 3-12 months’ duration each (including multiple periods);
• placements / internships abroad in Europe of 2-12 months’ duration each (including multiple placements);
• placements / internships within one year of graduation following the completion of a study phase (graduate placements), if the application was made within the final year of the study phase.

Requirements for an Erasmus scholarship abroad

• regular enrolment as a student at a German tertiary education institution;
• completion of the first year of studies;
• period of study at a partner institution with which the home university has concluded an Erasmus co-operation agreement (inter-institutional agreement);
• both home and host institutions hold a valid Erasmus university charter (ECHE).
