There are many study abroad opportunities and many ways to find out about your options. Below we summarize the most important points of contact for you.

At TU Dresden

TU Dresden's International Office

The International Office is your first point of contact when it comes to organizing a stay abroad. We will help you navigate your many options. If you would like to get a general overview of the many different opportunities for a stay abroad, visit us at the Infocenter or come to one of our information events about studying abroad. If you already know that you want to go to a European partner university, you should get advice on the ERASMUS+ exchange program.

ERASMUS Initiative at TU Dresden

If you want to get in touch with foreign students studying at TU Dresden before your stay abroad or if you want to keep your language skills fresh after you return, you should come to the weekly meeting of the ERASMUS Initiative TU Dresden. Information about the initiative and its events can be found on their homepage.

Testimonials

Many TUD students have already been abroad. Whether in Europe or worldwide, whether with a cooperation or individually organized, benefit from their experiences and read about their reports in the portal.

Cultural events at the International Office

The Cultural Office of the International Office offers students the opportunity to enjoy events together with international students at TU Dresden.

Professors in your department

In every Faculty there are international representatives who are available as contact persons. In addition, you can also turn to the Academic Advisors, especially if you have any questions regarding your subject.

Outside of TU Dresden

Studentenwerk Dresden

Accommodation, meals and financial support for students are regulated in a different way abroad than in Germany. Not every country has institutions such as the Studentenwerke in Germany that offer a wide range of services to help students with their studies. For this reason, the Studentenwerk Dresden would like to help you prepare well for studying abroad. If you have decided to study abroad, the Department of International Affairs of the Studentenwerk Dresden will gladly support you in your preparations and give you tips to plan your stay as well as possible. If you have further questions, please contact us directly: Matthieu Anatrella

Foreign Universities

The homepages of the universities can be found via search engines. There are university lists that show universities sorted by countries and continents. Some of them even offer the possibility to search for specific courses of study and universities. Some university lists are for example www.hobsons.com or also www.petersons.com. Further links can be found on the DAAD homepage.

TUD Alumni Ambassadors

The TUD Alumni Ambassadors will also provide you with help and information about the conditions in your host country. These TUD graduates are available as contact persons and initial points of contact in their respective countries, to help you get settled on location or to establish contacts.

Embassies and cultural institutes

Many embassies and cultural institutes offer special information for studies and/or internships (or work stays) in the respective country. The addresses are easiest to find via search engines on the internet.

DAAD

Detailed information about DAAD scholarship programs, country-specific information as well as an extensive bookmark list with links to pages with further information about studying and internships abroad can be found at the German Academic Exchange Service.
