Research visits

Spending time at a foreign higher education institution enables researchers, faculty members and PhD candidates to gain valuable experience in an international academic environment. The University of Kassel supports researchers and academics, who are planning or intending to spend this kind of time abroad, to conduct research here in Kassel during a fairly lengthy stay.

The International Office and the Department for Internationalisation and International Cooperation offer advice and information about the various opportunities for research visits abroad.

International Office

The International Office is the operational department for internationalisation at the University of Kassel and provides information, advises and supports students, faculty members and employees, who are interested in spending time abroad in relation to their work, and supports international students and researchers/academics.

The Department for Internationalisation and International Cooperation provides you with support for all the issues related to internationalisation, project and funding advice on international programmes and calls for proposals – as well as “internationalisation at home”.
