Campus after hours: Podcast episode about international opportunities for TUM students

News | 25.11.2020

What options do I have if I want to spend one or two semesters abroad? Which requirements do I have to fulfill? What do I have to consider when applying and on site? These are just three of many questions that numerous students ask themselves each semester. In the current episode of their podcast Campus after hours, the two TUM students Alvaro Ritter and August Sayn-Wittgenstein dealt with this question and invited various interview partners.

In addition to two students who reported on their experiences abroad, Axel Gumann from the TUM Global & Alumni Office was also a guest to present the various opportunities for TUM students. The Program Manager for TUMExchange described the different programs and funding opportunities in detail and also answered questions about studying abroad in times of Corona.

Unanimous tenor of the students: A semester abroad is invaluable

Max, who is currently in his seventh semester of Engineering Science and was at NTU in Singapore via TUMexchange, says: "Without a doubt, it was the right decision. Before [my semester abroad], I had two years of pure studying. Our degree is quite intense, so you don't do much besides actually sitting and studying. So being able to take that break, experience some new things, meet new people... that was really, truly amazing. And yeah, I'd do it again if I could."
 

Let yourself be inspired by your fellow students!
