Non-European countries
The department has a partnership with the Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul in Porto Alegre, Brazil. You can study there without paying tuition fees. Knowledge of Portuguese is recommended, as the university only offers a limited range of courses in English. Portuguese courses can be attended free of charge. Students of all degree programs in the department should find suitable courses at this university. The offer is particularly recommended for sports science students. Applications are made via Mobility Online. The deadline for applications for the winter semester 2024 is January 31, 2024. The semester periods are March - July and August - December. Information on the application procedure at the university can be found here.
You also have the opportunity to apply to study abroad via other departments. Finally, there is always the option of organizing a stay abroad yourself. You can find information about the partner universities at RPTU on the ISGS website.
Financing your stay abroad
Unlike Erasmus, an application to study at PUCRS is not automatically linked to a scholarship. You must therefore take care of the financing of your studies yourself. These applications usually require a longer lead time than ERASMUS and therefore you should start planning early (approx. 1.5 years before) your planned stay abroad.
