Outgoings - going abroad from the TUM School of Life Sciences
Through its worldwide cooperation, TUM offers numerous opportunities for international experience, from semesters abroad for students to exchange programs for scientists and employees.
Numerous students and employees take advantage of these offers to spend time abroad as part of their studies or jobs. Those who go abroad have many opportunities: Improve your language skills and intercultural competence, make international contacts, sharpen your academic profile - and last but not least: make friends all over the world.
Would you like to spend a semester abroad? TUM has many agreements with partner universities that make it easy.
You can find all our international cooperation partners that have an agreement with TUM in the MoveON database. There you can search for opportunities for your stay abroad and set various filters. For example, you will be shown all universities that have a cooperation agreement with TUM for a certain subject area (LS stands for Life Sciences). Students of these fields of study have priority. If the places are not used, students of other subject areas can apply (in consultation with the student exchange coordinators). The same applies to universities with which other TUM schools have an agreement. The results of your search are presented on a world map. At the university level you will also find testimonials from your predecessors.
