Go Global Day - Up 'n Away

On November 05, 2025, the International Office is organizing an information fair in the foyer of building 4 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event offers space for exchange, inspiration and preparation for your stay abroad. Not sure where to go yet? What are you waiting for?

  • Language Center at Frankfurt UAS: find out about your options for preparing yourself perfectly for your stay abroad in terms of language skills.
  • AIESEC: here you can find options for internships worldwide.
  • GoStralia/GoMerica: your choice if you want to go Down Under, to the United States and New Zealand.
  • Asia Exchange: if you're looking to go to Asia, check out Asia Exchange. But there are also some offers within Europe and Latin America.
  • College Contact: your expert for stays in the USA and elsewhere.
  • UREKA: we are a European University, did you already know?
  • International SOS: your partner for questions around travel risks and how to prepare for your stay abroad.

Take part in our photo competition “Go Global - Become a Local.”

Have you been abroad and not only looked around, but also settled in? Have you not only gotten to know new cultures, but also experienced them with all your senses? Then tell us about it! Or are you staying as an exchange student here or doing a whole study program here as an international student?
Were there moments when you suddenly felt like you were part of it? Moments full of joy, amazement, curiosity, and maybe even little goosebumps?

Under the motto “Go Global - Become a Local,” we are looking for your most beautiful, emotional, and vivid photographs that show the full spectrum of human emotions. Whether joy, love, surprise, happiness, thoughtfulness, or excitement – every emotion has its place in this contest. 

Whether you are currently abroad, have already returned home or are an international student here, show us how you “went global” and “became local.”

All visitors form the jury on November 5 and select the three best photos, from the incoming and outgoing students each.

1st prize: €100 gift certificate of your choice

2nd prize: €50 Rewe gift certificate

3rd prize: €30 Coffee Gallery gift certificate

We look forward to seeing lots of great photos. All information on the conditions of participation, data protection guidelines, and the consent form can be found in the campUAS course “Preparing to study abroad”.

  • Take part in the world quiz and win great prizes
  • Opportunity to talk to staff from the International Office: we are available to answer any questions you may have.
  • Several Camp Fire Sessions for students, staff and teaching staff
  • Photo competition for incoming and outgoing students, with all visitors forming the jury. The motto: "Go Global - Become a Local".
  • Panel discussion "Ask the experts" with students returning from their semester abroad, moderated by Stephanie Porter, Erasmus Coordinator

We look forward to seeing you! Take advantage of this opportunity to ask any questions you may have about your stay abroad!
