Stay abroad
Students of the Faculty of Linguistics, Literature and Cultural Studies have a wide range of opportunities to supplement their studies in Dresden with a stay abroad - in the form of semesters abroad, a double master's degree, internships abroad or self-organized stays.
Study abroad
- Exchange semester: All students can spend part of their studies at a partner university outside Germany within the framework of Erasmus+, TUDweltweit or faculty cooperation and have the credits earned there credited towards their studies after returning to TU Dresden.
- Double Master's degree: It is possible to enrol in one of the integrated binational degree programs (Doppia Laurea with the Università degli Studi di Trento) of the SLK faculty and thus obtain a domestic and foreign university degree at the same time.
Internships and other self-organized stays
- Internships abroad: Students can apply for internships abroad. Here, too, there is the possibility of Erasmus+ funding - information on this can be found at the Leonardo Office for Things. Internships can also be credited as part of the partially prescribed AQua internship of the SLK faculty's Bachelor's degree program.
- Further possibilities: Apart from studies and internships, students can also spend time in other countries in other ways, for example through programs such as WWOOF or Workaway.
Information & advice
Many questions arise when preparing for a study visit to another country. For this reason, the International Coordination Office offers regular consultation hours and general information events. Basic information on a semester abroad can be found in the ABC Study Abroad.
For students who have been offered a place at a partner university, there are also events on preparing for and planning the semester abroad. The information can also be found in the respective presentations:

Here are a few more advantages and tips:

- Stays abroad that were completed during the lecture-free period can be credited as part of the partially prescribed AQua stay abroad of the SLK faculty's Bachelor's degree program.
- Students can make initial contacts abroad via the TU Dresden's regional ambassadors. Regional ambassadors provide support in various aspects and make the start abroad easier.
