Students have the opportunity to independently organize internships abroad, for example through international projects or other contacts within the de­part­ment. As part of the bachelor’s program, an internship abroad can be recognized with credit points. There is also the possibility of financial support, for example through the Erasmus program. The contact person in the International Office is Laura Hope.

A stay abroad can also be a valuable opportunity within the scope of your thesis, for example to conduct interviews or carry out on-site research. TU Dortmund and the de­part­ment support such self-organized stays abroad with various scholarship programs: Link.

The departments and institutions of the de­part­ment regularly organize excursions in addition to study projects, which can also lead abroad. These excursions are often conducted in cooperation with partner universities and institutions on site. Students have the opportunity to have their participation in such excursions recognized as an examination achievement within Studium Fundamentale. Current information on excursions is regularly provided on the de­part­ment website as well as via the de­part­ment’s Instagram account.
