International Affairs
At the Faculty of Aviation and Automation Systems, we embrace internationality in a variety of ways. We are committed to fostering international partnerships and projects to enhance the university’s international profile. Our students have the opportunity to spend a semester studying or undertaking a work placement abroad. We also offer international visiting students the chance to spend an exchange semester or year with us and to take courses in German or English. Together with our international students who are completing their degrees at HAW Hamburg, they foster international and intercultural exchange on our campus.

Study abroad

Here you’ll find information on ERASMUS (Europe) and overseas programmes, as well as on scholarships and funding, applications and deadlines, student testimonials and FAQs, etc. Once you’ve got an idea of what’s involved, speak to your Student Exchange Coordinator.

Incomings - Exchange semester at HAW Hamburg
................................................................................................................................................................................................
If you are studying at one of our partner universities abroad, you have the opportunity to spend an exchange semester or year with us. In our faculty, you can take courses in German as well as in English in the fields of aeronautical engineering and automotive engineering.

Partner universities of the Faculty of Aviation and Automotive Systems
................................................................................................................................................................................................
The Faculty of Aviation and Automotive Systems maintains partnerships with universities worldwide. In the Mobility Online database, you can filter by the partner universities for your degree programme and then find both the ERASMUS universities and the overseas partners that are suitable for you. In addition, the Global-E3 portal lists exchange opportunities for engineering students.
Important Note: Please note that the database lists all potential partner universities. Unfortunately, this does not mean that you can always study at every partner university listed for your faculty. This may be because the cooperation agreement applies only to certain degree programs, or because your degree program is not offered at the partner university. Check the overseas partner profiles and the ERASMUS program, and then speak with your Student Exchange Coordinator.
