Exchange Semester

MPP students at the Brandt School benefit from a highly international student body, faculty and network. Students who wish to expand on this international experience do so though internships abroad or semesters at our partner universities.

The Brandt School offers a fully integrated Erasmus exchange program with the Department of Public Policy at the CEU in Vienna, Austria, and the Federman School of Public Policy at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Students spend their third semester at our partner institutions and fulfill all requirements of the MPP curriculum without losing time. ERASMUS grants are available for both programs.

The Brandt School also has academic agreements for student exchanges and research partnerships with the International Institute of Public Policy and Management at the University of Malaysia; the Lauder School of Government, Diplomacy and Strategy at Reichman University in Herzliya, Israel; the University of Rosario in Bogotá, Colombia; El Colegio de México in Mexico City, and the University of Macedonia in Thessaloniki, Greece. Students join these partners in an additional semester, e.g. the third or fourth, for the exciting experience of studying Public Policy in a new place. In addition, Erfurt University's International Office offers further exchange programmes in law, social sciences and economics that are open for MPP students.
