The Hasso Plattner Institute and the Digital Engineering Faculty maintain partnerships with various European universities. We encourage HPI students to spend a semester abroad. A semester abroad can be done during the bachelor's and master's program, but we recommend the master's program for this purpose. A semester abroad is not recommended during the fifth and sixth semesters of the HPI bachelor's program, as the bachelor's projects and final theses are written during this period. Alternatively, you can apply for several semesters of leave if, for example, you would like to complete two stays abroad.
