International Experience







If you want to give your studies at the Faculty of Business and Economics an international focus, there are a variety of options available to you, such as spending a semester or completing an internship abroad, taking part in a short-term study programme, or taking virtual courses through the ENLIGHT network. You can also experience internationalisation right here in Göttingen! In the process, you will have the opportunity to experience new cultures and an international environment, develop your language skills and intercultural competencies, and gain the kind of experience that companies are looking for on your CV!


If you're interested in studying abroad for a semester, you can apply to several partner universities through us via three different programmes. To help you prepare, you are welcome to attend our information sessions in May and November, or visit our weekly office hours for personalised advise. We are happy to advise you in English.
