Study Abroad
Studying abroad offers a chance to broaden one’s horizon, get to know other perspectives, learn a new language and make new international friends. At the Institute of East and Southeast European History we’re happy to welcome incoming students and assist outgoing students with their respective stay abroad.

Former partnership with the Higher School of Economics, Moscow
The Higher School of Economics (HSE) in Moscow is one of Russia’s leading universities and offers an excellent range of courses in the history of Russia and the Soviet Union. Students (undergraduates, postgraduates and PhD candidates) have the opportunity to undertake study visits.
In light of recent events, the Bavarian State Government has called on universities to suspend cooperation with Russia. Accordingly, cooperation with the HSE is suspended until further notice.
