The aerospace industry is international. Although there are important aircraft manufacturers in Austria, such as Diamond Aircraft and Schiebel, the major plane manufacturers have their head offices abroad. International and intercultural cooperation is therefore indispensable in the supply industry.<\/p>\n

Experience abroad is therefore of great advantage for the further career of our students – both professionally and personally. A semester abroad can be undertaken in the second year of studies.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

How does it work?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Our students can spend a semester abroad either as part of an internship with a company or a research institute in the third semester or at a partner university in the fourth semester. The second alternative will involve writing their Master’s thesis abroad.<\/p>\n

A practical semester abroad is fundamentally open to all students, whereas places for an ERASMUS student exchange semester at one of our partner universities are limited. An internal selection and application procedure has therefore been set up, which is organised and run by our International Coordinator. Candidates for the available places will be nominated based on academic success. The courses and ECTS completed abroad will be credited to your degree at FH JOANNEUM.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The range of our partner universities reflects the diversity of the aerospace industry. Each of our partner institutions has a unique profile and offers specialisations in many areas. These range from technical issues, such as lightweight construction and fibre-composite materials, to operational aspects and aviation management. In this way our students can shape their stay abroad to suit their own interests.<\/p>\n

Our Institute has close contacts with the following universities:<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
