Periods Abroad

Mobility During Your Studies

At the Faculty of Natural Sciences, we set great value upon supporting our students in all aspects of planning a stay abroad. All degree programmes not only include mobility windows and mobility facilitation, but also guarantee transparent and flexible recognition of credits earned abroad.

There are numerous ways to travel the world: take advantage of exchange programmes and partner universities or get valuable recommendations from our dedicated exchange coordinators. No matter which route you choose, we will be on hand with help and advice to make your stay abroad an memorable experience.

Students at Leibniz University Hannover who are planning a stay abroad can obtain lots of useful information from the International Office. A stay abroad can take many different forms: a semester or a year spent studying, an internship, a final thesis or doctoral research. The International Office is your main point of contact for stays abroad and assists you with everything that this involves.
Students are generally only required to take compulsory elective courses during the mobility semesters in order to offer them the best possible opportunities for international experience. This makes planning easier and enables students to take full advantage of the opportunities. Each degree programme offered by the Faculty of Natural Sciences provides specific information on mobility options in that particular programme: please take a look at the mobility section for your degree programme, which contains all the information you need.
