Study at the FOM International University with Erasmus+

Become part of Europe's largest exchange programme

Are you studying at a foreign European university and would like to complete one or two semesters in Germany? If your university has a partnership agreement with FOM University, it will be possible to do this. As part of the “European Community Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students”, you have the opportunity to study at one of 35 FOM university centres across Germany for up to one year. The benefit to you: you will be approved in a simplified process at the FOM and will not pay any student fees for your visit. There is also an option to receive a monthly bursary from the European Commission via the university in your home country.

Erasmus grant

Financial bursary for your study visit

With Erasmus+  the European Commission now funds, among other things, study visits in 33 countries. The programme is aimed at bachelor's and master's students as well as postgraduates of all disciplines and types of higher education. Erasmus grants are awarded for a duration of at least 3 months to a maximum of 12 months within an academic year. 

This is how to apply for an Erasmus+ visit to the FOM

The following requirements must be met for you to participate

  • There is a signed cooperation contract between your home university and the FOM International University
  • You must be enrolled in a course of study at your university in your home country.
  • Depending on the course's modules, the lectures will take place in English or German. You should therefore have sufficient ability in the relevant language.
  • Your study visit at the FOM International University must be for at least three months and must not exceed a year.

 

How to apply

An application for an Erasmus place is a two-stage process:: 

1. Please first contact the Erasmus+ coordinators at your university in your home country. Only once you have been selected and nominated by your university can you register at the FOM International University.

2. To register at the FOM University, complete the application form and send it together with the necessary documents by email to erasmus@fom.de or lea.ruehmann@fom.de

The application deadline is 1 April (for a study abroad during the winter semester) and 1 September (for a study abroad during the summer semester). The date of receipt of the digital documents applies.
