Faculty Sustainable Business & Law – International Exchange Program

Here you can find the course catalogue from which you can put together your own individual program.  

Participants in the program will study on our modern campus with over 2,500 other students of environmental business, law, sustainable science, information and media technology.

There is also the possibility of living directly on campus in one of the dormitories. All student apartments are reasonably priced. They come fully equipped and provide high-speed internet access as well as being connected to our university intranet.
We have reserved a limited number of rooms/apartments in the halls of residence for exchange students. Please send us a message if you are interested in accommodation in a dormitory. We will then assign you a room for a maximum of one semester. If we cannot give you a room, you will have to arrange your own accommodation.

The university does not charge a tuition fee for the Study Exchange Program. Students will have to pay a 300 Euros administration fee (does not apply to students from partner universities) per semester and a semester fee of approx. 350 Euros per semester that also allows free public transport throughout Germany.

Students will enjoy the benefits of our “buddy concept”, with German students providing individual help in getting orientated and integrated in campus life.

If you come from one of our partner universities, please contact Daniela Haubrich from the International Office.

Our Study exchange program addresses enrolled (Bachelor) students from partner universities all around the world. However, in exceptional cases foreign students may carry out a semester or a whole academic year at our university, even though they are not applying as part of a student exchange but voluntarily. This can be the case if applicants have already completed a Bachelor or Master study or have not yet started studying at all.

When applying as a free mover students will not be treated as guest students, but as regular students. Hence, they have to meet the academic admission requirements for studying at German universities. A higher education entrance qualification has to be proven.
