Hello, everybody!

Welcome to the website  of Innsbruck Goes International, the organisation of an European psychology exchange. We are looking forward to meet you all from May 10th to May 17th, 2019!

Idea

We are a group of students from the Department of Psychology in Innsbruck who are organizing an Exchange Week.
Our idea is to invite psychology students from different countries. Each country can send up to 5 participants. In total there will be around 35 international guests who will be staying with other psychology students in Innsbruck.
Based on our experience, we will offer you a program wich will contain different activities such as guest lectures, city tours, hiking trips or other day trips. The social and interactive aspects of our program are the welcome dinner, the personal exchange with local students, the development of a social network, and further great activities.

Concept

The international exchange week of psychology at the Leopold-Franzens-University of Innsbruck will take place from May 10th to May 17th, 2019 for the 12th time. Within this project psychology students from different universities will be invited to Innsbruck to get to know the Tyrolean culture, the city of Innsbruck and our academic life. The aim is to create an intercultural, social and professional exchange between psychology students. The exchange program is organized by students of the University of Innsbruck in cooperation with the Council of Psychology. In the past aprox. 35 students from several European universities took part in this project and this year we would like to invite the same number of students to come to Innsbruck. Our international guests will be hosted free of charge by psychology students, who will also be invited to take part in the programme. The participation fee for each student is 95 euros.
It is very important to us to enable students without the financial means to enjoy this week-long trip to Innsbruck, too.

Innsbruck

Innsbruck, also known as the capital of the Alps, is located directly at the foot of the mountains. With its 30.000 students, who come here from all over Europe and make a fifth of the town’s population, Innsbruck is a young city shaped by university, mountain sports, art, and nightlife. Discover the unique combination of a historic old town, modern architecture, mountains, and nature. The city and its mountains invite you to an unforgettable stay and offer endless activities such as rock climbing, hiking, rafting, workshops, a first-hand experience of the Tyrolean culture, and much more.
The thriving student life can be found everywhere around town: Next to the various faculties, which are spread over the whole city, Innsbruck has many student initiatives, locations for performing arts, pubs, and clubs. Many of these are located in the legendary ‚Bögen‘, a railroad viaduct where each arch is occupied by a club, a bar, or a gallery. Directly in the heart of the city, reached by foot in only five minutes, there is a cable car that takes you up to the top of the Nordkette – to 2250m.
Innsbruck is waiting for you!
