The central International Office, together with the Student Exchange Coordinator on our campus, are your points of contact if you’d like to spend a semester studying or working abroad. Please have a look at these pages first to get an idea of the options available to you:

The faculty has numerous international university partnerships around the world. 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.

Internship Abroad
You can also complete your work placement semester abroad. Here you will find information about the ERASMUS work placement programme, as well as other programmes and funding opportunities.

Intercultural Programmes: To help you prepare for a stay abroad, you’ll find tips on learning languages and information about HAW Hamburg’s intercultural programmes here.

We’d be delighted if you’d like to complete a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree with us! You’ll find answers to the many questions you might have on the International Office pages. Information to help you step by step through the application process. There is also advice on visas, financial support and how to succeed in your studies.

If you are studying at one of our partner universities, you have the opportunity to spend an exchange semester or year with us. In our faculty, you can take courses in both German and English in the fields of health and nursing.

You can find all the relevant information at ERASMUS/Study abroad We look forward to welcoming you.

The Faculty of Health has cooperations with partner 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.

Partner universities A-Z

Important note: Please bear in mind that the database lists all potential partner universities. Unfortunately, this does not mean that you will necessarily be able to study at every partner university listed for your faculty as part of your degree programme. This may be because the cooperation agreement is only for selected degree programmes, or because your degree programme is not offered at the partner university. Check the profiles of our overseas partner universities and the ERASMUS programme, and then speak to your Student Exchange Coordinator.
