International Relations Section, Faculty of Humanities

The Section for International Relations introduces itself

We coordinate the international activities of the Faculty of Humanities

  • Advice on all aspects of international programs
  • Academic support of incoming and outgoing students of the faculty and faculty cooperation, arrangement of learning agreements, preparation of transcripts of records, discussion of examination performance -  coordination between incoming students and faculty lecturers
  • Organization and implementation of international programs
  • Awarding of scholarships
  • Selection and supervision of Erasmus incoming and outgoing students of German Studies and DaF/DaZ; recognition of examination results from abroad
  • negotiation, conclusion of cooperation agreements

We are not a central institution or an administrative institution, first and foremost we are an academic institution that also takes care of administration and formalities.

We are a sub-department of the Dean's Office for Humanities and thus the link in international affairs:

  •     between the central administration and the dean
  •     between the chairs of the faculty and the dean

But also

  •     between incomings of our faculty and other faculties
  •     between Incomings and Outgoings within different subjects of our faculty
  •     between incoming and outgoing students of our faculty and the central administration, e.g. the International Office and, if applicable, the Examination Office.

In all international questions we are

  •     Advisor to the students and all staff members of our faculty
  •     mediator between administration and faculty, chairs, dean
  •     Advisor to the chairs of the faculty and the dean
  •     Mediator and advisor between foreign institutions/universities and the chairs of the faculty

We manage, advise and work creatively on the implementation of international contacts and meetings.
