Exchange Program Students
At RPTU Rheinland-Pfälzische Technische Universität Kaiserslautern-Landau, you also have the opportunity to participate in other exchange programs, notably partnership agreements that give you the chance to study for one or more semesters abroad, in this case, in Germany. As exchange student, joining the Rheinland-Pfälzische Technische Universität Kaiserslautern-Landau for one year or part of the year as an element of your studies in your home country, you will benefit from simplified application and admission procedures.
How to join us as an Exchange Student from a Partner university outside of Erasmus +
Students from partner universities are nominated by their home institution to participate in an exchange program at RPTU. If you are interested in joining us at RPTU, please contact the International Office at your home university first to discuss the nomination process.
Once you have been nominated, you will receive the link to our application plattforms, along with instructions on how to complete your application.
Detailed instructions on accomodation, health insurance and other practical matters is available on our website.
