International Projects

Our international projects aim at accompanying international prospective and current students through their whole academic pathway and their preparation for their labour market entry. Thus, we see ourselves in a promising position to support international  students in their respective search efforts in the best way possible before, at the beginning and during their studies.

Below you will find an overview of all projects in the central areas and faculties of Heilbronn University that are funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) with funds from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

Funded Projects of Central University Units

The "Profi plus" funding programme promotes the establishment of academic qualification programmes for international academics at German higher education institutions with the aim of equipping participants with additional qualifications and knowledge for an educationally adequate career in Germany. (DAAD)
Within the programme, we offer trainings for companies, and qualification semesters including language trainings and intercultural trainings as well as subjects from the engineering and informatics master programmes at the Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences for graduates of international universities. Participants receive a certificate and are supported in their application for a job in a regional company. After the training, you they may continue with a master program that includes on-site training in a company. Credits from the qualification semester are acknowledged.
