Welcome Breakfast

02.10.2019

We welcome eight exchange students! At the welcome breakfast organized by our International Office, they got to know each other, the Merz Akademie and the General Students Committee in a relaxed atmosphere.

The international students come from our partner universities in Portugal, South Korea, India and Tawain and spend a semester at the Merz Akademie. Among them are two Master’s students and six Bachelor’s students. Some of them receive a scholarship, such as the Baden-Württemberg-Stipendium or Erasmus+. The scholarship programs aim to promote the international exchange of German and foreign students.

If our students are interested in spending a semester abroad, they can study at one of our partner universities or complete an internship abroad – there are many possibilities. Birgit Haasen, head of the International Office, supports incoming and outgoing students.

Welcome to the Merz Akademie!
