HFR Internationalisation Strategy

Rottenburg University of Applied Forest Sciences (HFR) is committed to the principle of sustainability and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Challenges such as climate change, migration, refugee movements and the need for more sustainable forms of energy and transport cannot be solved by regional or national responses – they require dialogue on an international level.

The HFR provides its students with the skill set necessary to be able to work abroad and in international teams. We do this through internationally oriented programmes in line with real-life needs, international study/work placements and international excursions. The HFR is especially keen to welcome students and guests from abroad. To deliver on our internationalisation goals, international mobility and connections on the part of our professors, students and staff employees are crucial and are thus promoted by the University.

The HFR collaborates with international partners and provides extra support for international research projects.
