A stay abroad requires good preparation

If you would like to go abroad during your doctoral or post-doctoral phase, a number of points should be clarified before:   

  • discuss at the professorship whether you are dispensable or can be substituted in teaching  
  • check financing options for the stay (research scholarship programs)
  • determine a suitable period for the research stay
  • find a partner institution
  • inform yourself about insurances, residence regulations etc. (e.g. DAAD overview of insurance conditions)


Should you have any questions, please contact the Officer for Promotion of Young Scientists: forschungsservice@unibw.de.
