Internationalisation

International exchange students from our partner universities, international undergraduate students and visiting lecturers from abroad bring a wide range of intercultural learning opportunities to our university and enrich our courses with diverse perspectives, knowledge and methods. 

International researchers collaborate with colleagues at the Karlsruhe University of Education to initiate projects and contribute their specific expertise to research at our university.

If you belong to one of the groups mentioned and would like to join us at the university, you can find further information here.

Conversely, the Karlsruhe University of Education supports study abroad programmes for students, teaching staff, researchers and administrative staff. The focus is on the acquisition of key competences and international networking at an individual level, with a view to further developing the professional skills of those receiving support. 

Further information on the various types of stays for different target groups is available via this link.

Our university maintains a wide range of partnerships with international partners. These offer our students, lecturers, researchers and university staff a wide range of opportunities for international exchange, cross-border collaboration and individual mobility.

Our students have various options to apply for funding for study or practice-related stays abroad. These include, for example, funding from the Erasmus+ programme, DAAD funding schemes or the Baden-Württemberg STIPENDIUM. Staff in teaching, research and administration may also be eligible for funding under the Erasmus+ staff mobility scheme. Students and staff can find detailed information in the restricted-access section of our website (“Funding opportunities for stays abroad”). The International Office will be happy to advise you!

In addition to reciprocal student exchanges, our collaboration with our international partners also takes place within the framework of a wide range of international projects. In addition to academic exchange, the focus here is often on international teaching and learning collaborations, which give our students the opportunity to work alongside students from our partner universities, attend guest lectures by international academics or take part in internationally oriented courses.
