Visiting Scholars and Staff

The International Staff Exchange Coordination at HM Hochschule München University of Applied Sciences provides tailored support for visiting scholars and staff members.

If you are planning a teaching stay, ERASMUS+ teaching or training mobility, HM offers funding opportunities designed to assist international scholars who enrich our academic community. Visiting lecturers, staff mobility participants, and HM Fellows play a key role in enhancing our teaching and research landscape while fostering global connections.

Our team is here to assist visitors from partner institutions and international scholars interested in teaching or mobility opportunities through ERASMUS+ funding. We provide guidance throughout your stay, from exploring funding options to settling into life in Munich.

Comprehensive details on how we can assist your visit can be found on the following pages. International doctoral candidates are encouraged to contact the HM Graduate School for specific information tailored to their needs.
