Internationalization
University of Hamburg: a cosmopolitan and international tradition
More than 5,000 international students from more than 130 countries are enrolled at our University.
The University of Hamburg seeks to strengthen international research efforts while increasing its own international presence and furthering mobility, among faculty and students alike. Thus, we are developing strategic partnerships as with:
- Stellenbosch University in South Africa
- Macquarie University in Australia
- Indiana University in the United States
- Kyoto University in Japan
- Lund University in Sweden
- National Taiwan University in Taiwan
Furthermore, the University's faculties form part of a worldwide network including over 300 partner universities.
Research exchange
Excellent research can only flourish with new ideas and stimuli from the outside world; just as much as successful scholarship and science require a lively exchange in global networks. The University of Hamburg is therefore committed to cosmpolitanism and integration - not only on campus.
Our University offers excellent conditions for research and teaching in an attractive central environment. Its Welcome Service offers individual support for international academics to ensure that their time at the University of Hamburg will become successful in academic as well as in personal respect.
