Academic exchanges

Nowadays successful tertiary education for many students also means staying abroad, for example in the form of an internship in a foreign country, a semester overseas or long-term studies at a university abroad.

Universities offer scholarship holders, students, doctoral students and visiting lecturers numerous exchange opportunities to spend part of their studies or their research and lectureship post at a European or non-European university. EU education programs provide targeted international mobility within the ‘Lifelong Learning Program LLP’ of programs such as Erasmus/Erasmus Mundus or through the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

To provide protection for students and lecturers during their stays abroad, DR-WALTER has developed framework agreements together with universities as well as individual insurance rates for students. This enables us to provide targeted insurance cover for the following areas:

    * Foreign Health Insurance
    * Personal Liability Insurance and Intern Liability Insurance
    * Accident Insurance
    * Transport and Baggage Insurance
    * Travel Cancellation Insurance
