class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">1. Apply through your home university<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your exchange stay normally starts with an application at your home university. After successful selection, your home university nominates you to FAU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">2. Complete the FAU central application<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After nomination, please follow the instructions sent by FAU International Affairs \/ Service International. The institute cannot process the official FAU exchange application directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">3. Check suitable courses at the Institute of Geography<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before preparing your Learning Agreement, please check whether courses offered by the Institute of Geography fit your study program and can be recognized by your home university. Please contact the institute&#8217;s ERASMUS coordinator for details on courses. Please consider language, timing, ECTS credits, exam format, and recognition rules at the home university when selecting the courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">4. Prepare your provisional Learning Agreement<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your Learning Agreement should include the courses you plan to take at FAU and the courses or credits that should be recognized at your home university.  Each exchange student must take 25 ECTS at FAU. In some cases, the exchange students can also take language courses or courses from other faculties. However, enrollment depends on the prerequisite criteria and available places. Please note that course changes after arrival may be necessary if courses are canceled, are full, overlap, or are not suitable for your study level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Information on courses offered at the Institute of Geography can be found in the course catalogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.geographie.nat.fau.de\/studium\/studierende\/#msc-physical-geography-climate-and-environmental-sciences\">Courses offered in MSc Physical Geography<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.geographie.nat.fau.de\/studium\/studierende\/#panel_b692b4da\">Courses offered in MA Cultural Geography<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">5. Wait for official admission and arrival information<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please wait for official information from FAU\u2019s central offices regarding admission, enrolment, arrival, and other formal steps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">6. Register for courses after arrival<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you are officially enrolled at the university, you will receive a student ID and your IDM credentials. An IDM credential is essential because you can only enroll in courses with it. You can use an IDM credential to log in to the FAU systems, such as Campo and\/or StudOn.  As soon as you receive IDM, you can get enrolled in courses with the help of the Institutional ERASMUS coordinator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">7. Update your Learning Agreement if needed<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your course selection changes after arrival, please update the \u201cDuring the Mobility\u201d section of your Learning Agreement and obtain the required approvals from your home university and FAU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-intro-text wp-block-paragraph\">8. Before leaving FAU<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before the end of your stay, please complete all course requirements, exams, and any necessary documents.
