Sub­ject spe­cif­ic coun­selling by the fac­ulty

For each of our partnerships, there is one person in the IO who is responsible for organisational support and one person in the faculties who is responsible for subject-related support (Departmental Coordinator). If you would like specific subject-related information about a partner university, please make an appointment with the Departmental Coordinator. You can see who is responsible for which cooperation in our partner university portal .
"Be a smart student": Please prepare for the counselling session, consult the website and find out about the partner university in advance.
