Podcast | Between the Lecture Hall and the Horizon – Studying Abroad
A semester abroad sounds exciting—but how does it actually work in practice? In the latest episode of the podcast SICHTBAR HÖRBAR, the focus is on how students can successfully take the leap to study abroad.
Tanja speaks with Wolfgang Aschauer, the department’s internationalization officer, and Sofia, who shares her experiences from her Erasmus stay in Lisbon. Together, they offer insights into decision-making processes, highlight opportunities, and speak openly about challenges—from organization and financing to the recognition of academic credits.
Sofia’s personal experiences make the discussion particularly practical: How do you find your way around once you’re there? How do you meet new people? And what do you really take away from the experience in the end?
This episode is aimed at all students who are considering studying abroad, whether it’s just an initial idea or concrete plans. It offers guidance, helpful tips, and honest insights to help you better assess your own path abroad.
