At International Office <\/a>you can find out everything about international mobility programmes. On their webpage you’ll see some useful information for exchange students coming to TU Wien (Incomings) as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On our page here we just give you a brief “best of” of the possible international experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n

Possibilites for international experiences<\/h2>\n\n

Exchange semester<\/h3>\n\n\n

You can do an exchange semester inside Europe (Erasmus+) or worldwide (Joint Study). If you’re in your bachelor’s it’s probably easier to apply for an Erasmus spot. For the Joint Study programme master’s students are usually preferred and more often than not a recommendation letter is needed (e.g. from your bachelor’s thesis professor).<\/p>\n\n\n

Researching<\/h3>\n\n\n

There are many mobility programmes which allow you to combine international experience and researching (including Erasmus). It is also possible to do your bachelor’s, master’s or PhD thesis abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n
