Not true, if you consider the following: A stay abroad in the form of a semester or internship abroad may already be explicitly provided for in your degree programme. Many degree programmes have suggested a mobility window in the study regulations or you can deepen your knowledge on the International Track. Check your study regulations or ask your study advisor.

You can apply for leave of absence for the duration of your stay abroad (internships and semesters abroad). Students on leave of absence remain members of the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam. Semesters on leave are counted as university semesters, but not as subject semesters. For further information on leave of absence and how to apply, please contact the Student bob体育平台官网s.

You can have your work completed abroad recognised at the FH Potsdam. To do so, you need to conclude an agreement before your stay and apply for recognition of your work abroad after your stay.

Many financing options lead to the world! Don't let a lack of finances stop you and check all options in good time. Some exchange programmes are automatically linked to funding, while others allow you to apply for travel or accommodation grants.

We have already compiled an overview of funding for stays abroad for you and will be happy to advise you individually on funding opportunities.

Planning a stay abroad with a family involves more effort than for those travelling alone. But you as parents benefit from it and the time spent together abroad is also something special for your children. Other students have already successfully tried out studying abroad with a child. You are also eligible to receive financial support. For example, you can receive special funding of up to 10,000 euros per semester in the Erasmus+ programme if you travel abroad with a child. The University of Applied Sciences Potsdam will be happy to help you.

Through the exchange programmes and scholarship programmes, there are numerous opportunities that are geared towards people with impairments and chronic illnesses. For example, the Erasmus+ programme and the DAAD scholarship programmes provide grants, for example for preparatory travel in the host country and for the additional expenses that may be incurred due to the illness abroad. You can receive funding of up to 10,000 euros for your stay abroad.

The University of Applied Sciences Potsdam also supports you in your project! Contact the International Office and the representative for the interests of university members with disabilities.

The German Academic Exchange bob体育平台官网 (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst) provides information about opportunities for mobility with disabilities and the Studentenwerk Potsdam offers many tips on studying abroad with disabilities.
