There are agreements with partner universities in Europe (including Turkey) within the ERASMUS+ programme as well as bilateral agreements with universities from outside Europe, each of which stipulates a fixed number of study places for students of the Department of Architecture at TU Darmstadt. At the same time, these guarantee the waiving of tuition fees at the partner universities.
In addition, it is also possible for students to complete independently organised semester abroad as so-called freemovers at any time. Many universities with which there are no partnerships also offer the opportunity to do so. However, interested students must manage the respective application process on their own and pay any tuition fees that may be incurred. Nevertheless, it is advisable to make arrangements with the International Office (Architecture).
Further opportunities for international exchange are offered by an internship funded by ERASMUS+ as well as the programmes of the Federal State of Hesse, which allow Bachelor's and Master's students to study at partner universities in the US states of Massachusetts and Wisconsin as well as in Queensland, Australia, free of charge. In addition, there are various opportunities at the Department of Architecture to take part in an internationalisation at home in Darmstadt.
