Organisational structure

Our two faculties include a large number of departments that are responsible for teaching and research in their respective subjects and departments. The guide on this page will direct you to all facilities available at our university.

We, the International Office play a key role when it comes to managing and developing our international collaborations. We act as the central point of contact and, in cooperation with the faculties and chairs, organise, foster and encourage mobility and exchange. Here, international exchange students will receive advice and support on all matters relating to their stay at our university.

• We provide advice and support for international students and prospective students who would like to study at the Karlsruhe University of Education as exchange students, visiting students or regular degree-seeking students.
• We advise students enrolled at our university who are planning to study abroad for one or more semesters or to do an internship abroad.
• We advise and support visiting researchers who teach and research at our university.
• We provide support for teachers at our university who go abroad, in particular for teaching purposes.
• We cultivate and foster our ties to our international partners.
• We closely collaborate with exchange and scholarship organisations and coordinate in particular the scholarship programmes of the European Union:
  • Erasmus+,
  • German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD),
  • Baden-Württemberg Stiftung and many more.

• We are also actively committed to the further internationalisation of our university, help develop existing partnerships and establish new ones around the world, and promote intercultural exchange on site at our university.
