The KU - an international university

The KU is a cosmopolitan university with a broad international network. In addition to its strategic partnerships, it maintains collaborations with almost 300 partner universities in over 60 countries worldwide. It promotes international mobility of its research staff, lecturers, administrative employees and students. All KU students have the opportunity to complete a study or internship stay abroad. The university also offers a broad range of double degree programs and other international study options.

The KU welcomes international guests from all over the world and attaches great importance to fostering its international campus culture that is also reflected in the high proportion of international students at the KU: About ten percent of our students come from over 60 different countries and enrich our daily campus life. All international guests and students benefit from personal supervision and support before, during and after their stay at KU.

Internationalization is a key focus area at KU. This does not least become evident in the numerous individual advice and support offers for different target groups. The central service point for all issues regarding internationalization at KU is the International Office.

Erasmus+

Erasmus+ Logo

For 35 years, the Erasmus+ programme and its predecessor programmes have opened up new perspectives for the organisation of mobility, as well as European and international educational cooperation, and are also a symbol of the European community and values. 

KU's participation in the Erasmus+ programme is an important element of internationalisation and demonstrates KU's self-image as a European university with an international network. 

Further information on all Erasmus+ programmes at KU can be found here.
