International
In a globalized world, exchange between universities in general, but especially between students, is extremely important. The Munich School of Politics and Public Policy (HfP) / TUM School of Social Sciences and Technology promotes international and intercultural dialog through its diverse contacts and cooperations in the interests of its members.
Going abroad

EuroTeQ Program – Take Online-Courses abroad

Welcome Exchange Students!
We welcome new exchange students to the TUM School of Social Sciences and Technology (Governance Department). Our student advisors will help you achieve your academic goals, settle in Munich and support you during your time at TUM.
Buddy Program
Starting your studies at a new university can be stressful for both international exchange students and first semester students. Our Buddy Program supports both of these groups at the beginning of their studies at TUM. Volunteering as a buddy offers the opportunity to meet international students, get to know their traditions and cultures, brush up on language skills and receive bonus points for your own exchange.
