Why go abroad?

Regardless of which of our Romance studies courses you choose or have already chosen, a longer stay abroad is essential for a deep and comprehensive understanding of your chosen language and cultural area.

In addition to deepening your foreign language skills and promoting intercultural competence, experience abroad in
French- or Spanish-speaking countries also enables you to develop skills such as flexibility, self-organization and the ability to cooperate, which are important qualifications for many professional fields.

Internship or semester abroad?

The stay abroad can take the form of an internship or a semester abroad as part of the Erasmus program or within existing bilateral agreements between the Institute of Romance Studies and partner universities. Students studying to become teachers also have the opportunity to get to know the foreign school system as foreign language assistants.
