Travelling is an education!
Your student years are an ideal opportunity to travel to distant countries and to get to know foreign cultures first hand. Whether you would like to spend a term abroad, gain work experience or teach/learn a language in another country, the University will support you.
Researchers and staff, too, can add an international dimension to their careers. Find out about research and teaching opportunities abroad, and about international training and professional development opportunities.
Going abroadInternationality has always been a hallmark for the University, as well as an important strategic aim. This is underpinned by our intensive global connections, particularly the international collaborations and research partnerships of our scholars and scientists.
Europe plays a central role for us at the University of Passau. We're one of ten universities from eight countries that are currently working on launching a European University Network (EUN) entitled "Reform European University Alliance: Responsibility and Ethics for Innovation - a transformation model"
