Working abroad

Fachhochschule Dortmund sees itself as a university where internationality can be experienced and lived. International staff exchanges at European universities and in foreign companies are therefore an integral part of staff development.

The aims of the Staff Exchange

  • Active contribution to the internationalization process of science and administration at our university of applied sciences.
  • Professional exchange on administrative processes in your own field of work.
  • By "running along" or "looking over the shoulders" of foreign colleagues who work in similar structures, the aim is to gain insights into their work processes and, if possible, to gain new ideas for your own work at home.
  • Personal development (e.g. intercultural competence and foreign language skills).

Mobility formats

Mobility for further education and training purposes (at a partner university or at corresponding companies/institutions abroad) can take place in the following formats:

"The Staff Mobilities enabled us to really get to know the partner universities and local contacts and we can now counsel our students even better," say Ana Isabel Martín Ibanéz and Miguel Ángel Sánchez López, English and Spanish lecturers at the Faculty of Business Studies, summing up their stays abroad (Staff Exchange) in Madrid and Zaragoza, Spain.
