Do you want to broaden your horizons, get to know people and cultures in other countries, deepen your knowledge and improve your language skills? Then seize the opportunity for a stay abroad! The possibilities range from a semester abroad to a professional or graduate internship, all the way to participations in International Weeks.
The staff of the International Office and the International Coordinators of the degree programs will be happy to advise you on the type of stay abroad that is best suited for you.
Apply for a placement at one of our partner universities or organize your stay at a university of your choice as a Freemover. Depending on the country you choose, you have the option to apply for funding from ERASMUS+, the Swiss European Mobility Program (SEMP), the Marshall Plan Foundation or for the FH Campus Wien Freemover grant MOVE. The prerequisite for receiving funding is that the ECTS earned abroad are credited towards your education at your home university.
The internships of the degree programs are suitable for gaining work experience abroad. You apply to a potential internship yourself. Visit the Student Portal for tips on searching for an internship. For several degree programs, internships can also be arranged through partner universities. Furthermore, students of Social Work and Health Sciences have the opportunity to complete an internship in Africa, Asia and Latin America through the Austrian Development Agency (ADA).
For stays of more than 2 months, you can apply for funding from ERASMUS+, the Swiss European Mobility Program (SEMP), the Marshall Plan Foundation or for the FH Campus Wien Freemover grant MOVE.
Take advantage of the graduate program of ERASMUS+ and do an internship abroad in the first year after your graduation. The internship must be related to the subject you have studied and should help to prepare you for your entry into the professional world. To receive funding for the graduate internship, you must apply to the International Office before completing your studies.

Take the opportunity to attend International Weeks at our partner universities. Information about upcoming events can be obtained from the degree programs and the International Office.
The INUAS Network regularly organizes Winter and Summer Schools in Zurich and Munich. Selection and registration takes place through the degree programs and the selected students receive a grant from FH Campus Wien as support.
The master’s degree program Social Economy and Social Work concludes with a joint degree from six European universities. A several-week obligatory study visit to one of the partner universities serves to broaden the students’ subject-specific, language and intercultural competences.
In the bachelor's degree program Occupational Therapy, students can take part in the "FAB-ulous" semester. The courses of the 6th semester are completed in Finland, Belgium and Austria. Students also have the opportunity to earn a double degree. For the internship, which is part of the semester, students can apply for an ERASMUS+ grant.
In this section, we will keep you informed about current developments and the possibilities to go abroad in times of Covid-19.
Yes, our University of Applied Sciences has decided to support mobility in the academic year 2022/23. Application phases for stays abroad and nominations are carried out as announced on our website.
When planning stays abroad, please consider the travel warnings of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Wait with booking accommodations and flights as long as possible, and book only with cancellation option, since our partner universities might cancel planned stays abroad if new restrictions are introduced. Furthermore, inform yourself before you leave about the current Covid-19 situation and regulations in your host country and obey the local rules.
The ERASMUS+ program has also collected important information about mobilities in the context of Covid-19 on their website. If you have questions, please contact the International Office.
If you no longer feel safe abroad, you can cancel your stay abroad and return home. However, it is important that you immediately contact and inform all involved parties about your decision (i.e. the international coordinators, the host university or internship placement, and the International Office).
For ERASMUS+ students, in case of a deterioration of the situation in the host country, the “force majeure” rule applies (for further information, click here). Students, who are abroad as freemovers or with other scholarships, please contact the International Office.
Please inform yourself about current regulations when entering Austria on the website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If symptoms occur, contact the Health Advice Hotline 1450 for further advice. For general information, call the hotline 0800 555 621 and inform your degree program or your superior by e-mail or telephone about a possible absence.
After your return, please submit the final documents to your sponsor and the International Office. ERASMUS+ students can find the current regulations on the website of the ÖAD.
Please send an e-mail to Julia Kovacs and the international coordinator of your study program. We will cancel your application for your stay abroad and inform you about the necessary steps.
