Participate in a survey: How international is your degree programme?

How international is your degree programme? We want to analyse this question together with the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and therefore cordially invite you to participate in a nationwide student survey.

The aim is to compare the internationality of study programmes at the participating universities and to find out where the universities' support services are useful and how they can be improved.

We would therefore be very pleased if you support this endeavour by taking part in the survey. Students who are not interested in studying abroad are also important for the validity of the results.
