Erasmus+
Erasmus Incomings
Our more than 50 Erasmus+ university partnerships help to foster an ever developing international environment and can offer exciting collaborative possibilities between institutions and individuals alike. The Eramus+ programme gives international students and staff from our many partner universities the opportunity to participate in a university exchange for up to two semesters at the ABK Stuttgart. In order for exchanges to take place, an Erasmus+ contract must exist between the academy and another institution with university status. For more information about the Erasmus+ programme please see here.
