Studying at a EUniWell university
Erasmus+ studies
Are you interested in an exchange semester or an entire year abroad at one of the EUniWell member universities? Then apply for a semester/year abroad funded by Erasmus+. The application process is organized by the faculties' Centers for International Relations (ZIB). Please refer to the Study abroad with Erasmus+ page for information on the application process and contact the Centre of International Relations of your faculty. If you have any questions about inclusion and support services during your stay abroad, please contact the relevant advisor for your exchange programme or the Service Center Inclusion.
If your faculty cannot offer you a place at the university of your choice at the European University for Well-Being, please do not hesitate to contact us again and we will discuss your options.
EUniWell Mobility Skills
All students, teachers and employees who do an exchange at one of our EUniWell partner universities will be offered a variety of courses on EUniWell Mobility Skills (EMS). This is intended to train language and intercultural communication skills in particular. As part of the preparation, all those interested in an exchange are asked to take part in one or more of the EMS courses.
More information and links to the offers of the respective partners can be found on the EUniWell website (EUniWell Mobility Skills).
Internship in a EUniWell environment
Do an internship in one of the EUniWell cities or regions! EUniWell works with various associated partners on the subject of well-being. Associated partners are e.g. research institutions, schools, cities and communities or local companies. We would be happy to help you find the right contact. Of course, you can also approach organisations and companies independently. An internship can be funded by the common options. We are delighted to be of further help.
Summer/Winter Schools, Blended Learning and other Opportunities for Cooperation
In addition to traditional exchange formats, the EUniWell universities also offer short-term programmes such as summer and winter schools or hackathons in virtual, physical or blended formats. The European University for Well-Being supports and strengthens diversity and inclusion and therefore pays attention to students with special needs also in inclusive short-term programmes. We will inform you here about upcoming programmes as soon as they are offered as part of EUniWell. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you are interested in participating or as a lecturer in conducting a short-term program.
Information and reports on previous short-term programs can also be found on the EUniWell website.
