„I am incredibly happy to have been given the opportunity to spend a semesterabroad in South Korea. Not only did I get to experience a new culture and university system, but I also made wonderful new friends from all over the world.During my semester abroad, I had great and unique experiences that I definitelywouldn‘t want to miss. In addition, I was able to acquire important soft skills and intercultural competences during my study abroad, which give me an advantage in the job market. By improving my Englisch skills and learning Korean, I have nowalso gained the ability to act and communicate more fluently and eloquently in an international context.In can only recommend anyone who is interested in new cultures, unforgettableexperiences and different perspectives to take the step and spend a semesterabroad. Many thanks to Bauhaus-Universität Weimar for making this uniqueexperience possible for me!“

COVID-19 &SAFETY NOTE
66
The Corona virus situation is developing dynamically. We would like to point out that our partner universities may decide to cancel exchanges in the ongoing process.
This is for your safety and cannot be predicted in advance. Please be assured that we will inform you immediately if such news reaches us.
Please inform yourself about the situation (e.g. entry regulations) and the infection situation in the country where you would like to spend your exchange.
Please also consider other potential safety issues related to your country of stay (e.g. political situation).
The decision for or against a stay is of course up to you.
Please inform us at the partner university if you do not wish to take up your stay abroad.
