Study Abroad
Internationality is included in the LAS coursework and in the student body; more than 25% of our students are international, with incoming exchange students further enrichening internationality at UCF. Students are encouraged to spend part of their studies abroad, and about 80% do so – usually during their third year.
The following pages cover
- Opportunities for outgoing exchange students such as UCF study abroad programs
- Dual Degree Program between the University Colleges of Freiburg and Maastricht
- LAS study abroad experiences and testimonials
- Information for incoming exchange students

Every spring, UCF hosts a Study Abroad Fair.
All students interested in studying abroad are invited! Anne Klemperer, UCF's International Coordinator, and a representative from the International Office present study abroad opportunities and are available for all your questions on studying abroad.
This is followed by an informal session during which interested students can talk to LAS students who have returned from studies abroad as well as to exchange students from our partner universities and ask them about their experiences.
The presentations from the 2019 Fair are available on ILIAS.
Furthermore, the University of Freiburg and UCF are engaged in transnational higher education alliances that offer various study abroad opportunities:
EPICUR (European Partnership for Innovative Campus Unifying Regions) – a pilot European University of the future with a focus on transantional collaborative teaching and learning. EPICUR's educational course offerings are regularly published in the EPICUR course catalogs. | |
EUCOR – The European Campus is a trinational alliance of five universities in the Upper Rhine, a border region between Germany, France and Switzerland. Please see the Uni Freiburg EUCOR pages for more information on EUCOR offerings and logistics. |
