Studying abroad is a great opportunity to gain international experience, broaden your world view and gain a new perspective on your degree programme and beyond.

Incoming students

It is possible to complete a full degree in Göttingen, or, alternatively, to study abroad in Göttingen for one or two semesters within an exchange programme. The most important options are:

  • Study towards degree - this is where our English-taught Master's Degree programme in Mathematics (M.Sc.) comes in.
  • Exchange programmes.
    • Home university in the European Union (EU): Erasmus+
    • Home university EPFL Lausanne (Schweiz): SEMP
    • European University Alliance: Enlight
    • Home university outside the European Union (EU): Global Exchange Programme
