a study semester abroad
Studying abroad for one or two semesters is a great opportunity to grow both personally and academically, strengthen your language skills, discover new cultures and ways of life and gain valuable international experience.
DIT has partner universities all over the world – explore our partner universities!
Choose the path that suits you best:
Sources of Information
Planning ahead pays off: Ideally, start preparing for your study abroad experience around 12 months before your planned departure. This will give you enough time to arrange your application, funding and course selection.
- Attend one of our information sessions. You can find all upcoming dates in the event flyer.
- Enrol in our iLearn course.
- Book an individual advising appointment with the Outgoings Team.
- Get inspired by the student testimonials from former outgoings and the stories shared by DAAD correspondents.
Application Process
- Application: Applications are submitted online via Mobility Online. Once you have received your login details, register in the system, complete your personal information and upload the following application documents:
- Curriculum vitae (CV)
- Letter of motivation
- Certificate of enrolment
- Mark Sheet (for applications submitted during the first semester, this can be submitted by early March)
- Application deadline: Applications for a study abroad period in the following academic year (winter and summer semester) can be submitted until 15 February.
- Allocation of places: By the end of March, all applicants will be informed by email which partner university they have been allocated to.
- After nomination by the International Office, you will apply to the host university and, with support from the International Office, prepare your Learning Agreement to ensure recognition of the credits earned abroad.
- Application: You apply directly to your chosen host university, with the support of a placement agency if required.
- Registration: You should also register as a Free Mover in Mobility Online (simplified procedure). This enables you to benefit from the International Office's support services, including assistance with preparing for your stay abroad, the recognition of credits earned abroad and information on funding opportunities.
an internship abroad
An internship abroad offers you the opportunity to apply the knowledge you have learned during your studies in practice and gain valuable intercultural experience at the same time. An internship abroad is therefore an enriching addition to your academic education and offers exciting insights into professional life.
The following options are available:
- Compulsory internship, which is completed abroad: There are certain requirements (e.g. a minimum duration) that must be adhered to. Please refer to the internship guidelines of your degree program.
- Voluntary internship
- Short voluntary internship (e.g. during the semester break): Please note that there is a minimum duration so that the internship can be financially supported.
- Longer voluntary internship (e.g. for a whole semester): May extend your studies but can still be beneficial.
- Graduate internship: The Erasmus+ scholarship program also funds internships abroad that are completed within twelve months of the end of your studies. You can find more information here.
Funding opportunities
Sources of information
All important information can be found on iLearn.
You can find internship advertisements on the DIT online job board and the iLearn course.
In addition, the introductory information session "Five Steps to an Internship Abroad" is offered every semester.
After attending the introductory information session, you can schedule an individual consultation or submit your English CV for review.
summer school
International Learning in a Compact Format
Summer Schools and Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs) offer you the opportunity to gain international study experience within just a few weeks. These programmes often combine academic courses, language training and cultural activities such as excursions and field trips.
Short-term mobility programmes are not a substitute for a semester abroad, but they can be an excellent complement and are ideal if you:
- Would like to gain your first international experience.
- Have limited time available.
- Would like to improve your language skills.
- Would like to build an international network.
Summer Schools
Current Summer School opportunities are published in the Career Newsletter under item 15, "Summer Schools / Language Courses". Summer Schools may be funded through DIT scholarships, subject to the availability of funds.
Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs)
In a Blended Intensive Programme, a short-term stay at an Erasmus+ partner university is combined with a virtual component, for example to prepare for, accompany or follow up on the programme. The on-site phase usually lasts five to seven days and may be funded through Erasmus+.
If you are interested in participating in a BIP, please contact bip@th-deg.de.
funding a stay abroad
Financial Support for Your International Adventure
An international experience does not have to be limited by financial constraints. Depending on your destination and the type of mobility, a range of funding opportunities may be available:
- For study abroad experiences within Europe, financial support is available through Erasmus+.
- For stays outside the EU, you can apply for a DIT scholarship or benefit from other funding opportunities.
The International Office will be happy to help you identify suitable funding options. Please note that there is no entitlement to funding, as available funds are limited each year.
DIT Scholarships
One Application - Multiple Opportunities
With just one application, you can apply for all three DIT internal scholarship programmes at the same time.
Applications are submitted via Mobility Online. You can find a guide to the application process here.
The application deadline is 30 April each year for stays during the winter semester and 31 October for stays during the summer semester.

An overview of German foundations can be found here.
erasmus+
Erasmus+ is a European scholarship programme, which supports, promotes and funds student mobility around Europe.
Students who join the Erasmus+ programme, study for at least 3 months or complete an internship for at least 2 months in another European country.
The programme guarantees that the period spent abroad is recognised by their home university on return, as long as they abide by the agreed conditions and terms. Through Erasmus+, students do not pay additional tuition fees to the host university.
- The European Commissions' Student Charter highlights your rights and obligations and tells you what you can expect from your sending and receiving organisationsat each step of your Erasmus+ experience.
Erasmus+ is a European scholarship programme, which supports, promotes and funds student mobility around Europe. Through bilateral agreements, universities involved are committed to the following principles:
- To waive tuition fees
- To help and support students in finding local accommodation
- To facilitate the recognition of academic achievements obtained for the respective study programmes
You can get advice and information from the International Office.
Requirements
All enrolled DIT students can take part in this programme, their nationality is irrelevant. Participation is only possible with partner universities that have a valid Erasmus + contract in place with DIT.

The UK is no longer part of the Erasmus+ programme due to the Brexit.
Additional funding
Equal and fair access to Erasmus+ are key priorities in the new generation of the programme. Certain target groups can therefore receive a monthly top-up of €250 on top of the standard Erasmus+ rates. This applies to
- first-time academics,
- students with disabilities,
- students with chronic illnesses and
- students with children.
More detailed information on the funding guidelines can be obtained from the International Office.
Sustainability
Another goal of the current Erasmus+ generation is to make the exchange program "greener" and promote environmentally conscious travel.
Students who use a low emission means of transport to travel to the host country can receive additional Erasmus+ funded travel days and a higher travel allowance (see “Travel allowance and travel days”).
The requirement is that at least 50% of the total distance (outward and return journey combined) must be covered by a low emission means of transport (e.g. train, bus, bicycle or carpool).
Travel allowance and travel days
From project year 2025 onwards, all participants will receive a travel allowance and, if applicable, additionally funded travel days.

The travel allowance and number of travel days depend on the distance to the host institution and are calculated automatically using the EU's Erasmus+ Distance Calculator (Deggendorf is always the starting point).
As the costs for sustainable travel are often higher and the travel time is usually longer, an increased travel allowance is granted if a “green” means of transport is used for the trip.
A total of up to six travel days for “green travel” and up to two travel days for non-environmentally friendly travel can be awarded.
Please note: The travel days listed above do not depend on your individual travel plans (fixed number of days per category).
In case your trip (whether green or not) requires more travel days than those listed above for your distance category, you can contact the International Office for an individual review of your travel plans and documents.
Duration of funding
When students stay abroad for one semester, they are funded for a maximum of 120 days. When they stay for two semesters, they are funded for a maximum of 240 days.
It is possible to receive up to 12 months of Erasmus+ funding (studying and/or internships) per study cycle. A renewed funding for the master level is possible.

Application documents
You can apply for an Erasmus+ scholarship for your internship via Mobility Online.
There you can upload the required application documents:
- CV with photo,
- Transcript of Records
- Motivational letter,
- Certificate of enrolment,
- Internship contract (can be handed in later)
Selection criteria
- Complete application documents
- Recognised internship (voluntary internships may be funded as well, if they are relevant to the programme of study)
- Average grades and language skills (good command of the working language, basic knowledge of the local language)
- Motivation for an internship abroad
Scholarship approval
After the scholarship approval, a Learning Agreement for Traineeships and a Grant Agreement must be submitted.
On return
At the end of your Erasmus+ internship, there are a few organizational points to take care of.
As part of the Learning Agreement “After the Mobility”, your internship company must confirm the final duration of the internship.
After your return, please enter a detailed experience report in Mobility Online for future outgoings students.
You will also be asked to complete a short survey about your stay via the European Commission's Mobility Tool. You will automatically receive an invitation from the EU by email at the end of your stay.
The second scholarship installment can only be paid out to you once these steps have been completed.
Compulsory language test for Erasmus+ students and interns
The European Commission has provided an online language test for EN, ES, FR, IT, NL. For ALL students / interns, this must be completed in the working language / language of instruction both before the start of mobility and after the end of the stay. However, it is not a selection criterion for funding in the Erasmus+ program and does not apply to native speakers. Once the participants to be funded in Erasmus+ have been selected, the implementation of the language test should serve as a placement test to document their current language level.
Erasmus+ students or interns can be licensed by the home university for a free online language course. The International Office issues licenses after checking the documents and language skills. In addition, language courses subject to a fee can be subsidized BEFORE starting your studies or internship abroad. Funding is only possible if sufficient financial resources are available.
English courses are not funded, only in exceptional cases. If you are interested, please contact the International Office

Approach
Fill in the External Learning Agreement or ERASMUS+ Learning Agreement and the Internal Learning Agreement and have them signed by the respective lecturers and the international representative. Take detailed course descriptions with you and make an appointment in advance.
Students of Business Administration, International Management and Applied Economics only need to make an appointment with the international representative.
Submit these Learning Agreements to the International Office (B 210). The External Learning Agreement is often required very early (depending on the deadline of the partner university), the Internal Learning Agreement only needs to be submitted to the International Office BEFORE departure (no fixed deadline).
Record course changes in the external Learning Agreement or ERASMUS+ Learning Agreement "Changes/Changes" as well as internal Learning Agreement.
Clarify information about course changes in advance with the responsible professor/expatriate by e-mail and send a copy to the International Office.
Fill in the area "Änderungen/Changes" in the Learning Agreement (external and internal) and send the Learning Agreement including course descriptions to the International Office (e-mail). The International Office will forward the Learning Agreement.
Course changes should be communicated to the International Office and the International Officer within four weeks and all changes should be recorded in the Learning Agreement (external and internal).
The Centre for Studies will carry out the grade conversion as soon as the certificate from the partner university is available. Unless the examination board has decided otherwise, the table recommended by the examination board (see above) is used for grade conversion. Intermediate grades are interpolated linearly.
Recognised achievements are recorded in the grading sheet if they are module grades; for submodule achievements, a transcript of records is issued by the Centre for Studies.
