Studying abroad

During your studies, you have the opportunity to study abroad for 1-2 semesters in addition to practical and short stays. The h_da has partner universities worldwide at which you do not have to pay tuition fees. In the h_da International Office we separate between Erasmus+ stays (Europe) and overseas stays (all countries outside Europe). 

In the overseas region we also have so-called Study Abroad Partners. At these partners h_da students get a discount on tuition fees. 

Find out more about our partner universities on this worldmap. If you cannot find a suitable university, you can also go abroad as a so-called "Freemover". 

Studying abroad does not automatically mean that you have to extend your studies. However, if it does, this is not necessarily a disadvantage. You will find that the advantages of studying abroad outweigh the disadvantages. Most employers also appreciate it when applicants have gained international study experience. 

In principle, you have the option of having work done abroad recognized for your h_da studies - in consultation with your department. In any case, you should conclude a Learning Agreement with your department BEFORE your stay.
