International Office

The International Office is the central point of contact for all international activities at Osnabrück University. We shape and promote global exchange in studies, research, and teaching – with commitment, expertise, and a strong network of worldwide partnerships.

We support students, researchers, and staff in their international projects, accompany international guests on their way to Osnabrück, and develop sustainable collaborations with partner universities around the globe. Our goal is to actively live internationalization – with fair opportunities, reliability, and a focus on the future.

Whether you need advice on stays abroad, support for international students or strategic partnerships – do not hesitate to ask for our help and advice. Get in touch with us!
