Erasmus+ guest students

Dear ERASMUS+ Exchange Students,

We are delighted that you have chosen to study at the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences and would like to say:

“A WARM WELCOME”

Zittau and Görlitz—both cities are located in the far southeast of Germany in the state of Saxony. They are only about 35 km apart and, together with the neighboring countries of Poland and the Czech Republic, form part of the “Euroregion Neisse.” With populations of only about 26,000 and 56,000, respectively, both cities offer a cozy and pleasant atmosphere that’s just right for studying.

Both university campuses offer good conditions for studying. You’ll benefit from modern, well-equipped teaching buildings and laboratories, as well as fully renovated dormitories and new student canteens with modern libraries.

You can find testimonials from previous students here.
