Your Path Abroad

Studying at CBS can take you anywhere in the world! Many of our programmes include a mandatory semester abroad, and our International Office ensures that you have the best possible experience. We maintain strong relationships with partner universities and continuously expand our network. Our team frequently visits international education fairs and partner institutions to create even more opportunities for our students.

Perfect Preparation for Your Study Abroad Experience

To help you prepare for your time abroad, the International Office hosts regular information sessions. These provide essential guidance on applications, financing options, necessary documents, and the credit transfer process, ensuring a smooth transition before, during, and after your studies abroad.

Supporting International Students in Germany

Students from around the world find a second home at CBS. The International Office assists international students with all aspects of their stay in Germany, from visa and accommodation advice to social integration. Our "Welcome Week" and "Study Buddy" programmes help you settle in quickly, build a strong network, and make the most of your CBS experience.

A Global Community & Cultural Exchange

At CBS, internationality is not just taught—it’s lived. With students from countries such as Taiwan, Korea, France, the USA, and Mexico, our campus thrives on cultural exchange and a global perspective. Through networking events, intercultural workshops, and social activities, the International Office fosters an environment where you can connect, learn, and grow—both personally and professionally.
