ERASMUS / Non EU-Partner Universities
The application as an exchange student is processed by your home university in the first instance. Please enquire about cooperation between your university and Hochschule Düsseldorf at your own International Office.
If a cooperation agreement exists, you can study at HSD for one or two semesters as an exchange student within this partnership and with admission from your home university.
How to apply for a study exchange at HSD:

- After receiving your nomination, the International Office will get in touch with you and provide you with all the relevant information regarding the application procedure. Please make sure to check your spam/junk mail folder as the email coming from the International Office might end up there.
