LMU takes advantage of its success in the Excellence Initiative and Strategy to strengthen its profile as a “universitas” that is strong in research, over the coming years, and to continue to expand its position internationally. 

At LMU, national and foreign scientists and scholars find excellent conditions for their research, whether in each of the disciplines or linked to different areas of knowledge. 

LMU maintains a broad-based international network and cooperates in degree programs, research, and administration with highly respected partners worldwide. 

For many years, LMU has maintained scientific contacts with Brazilian universities in the State of São Paulo and beyond. In addition to the strategic cooperation with USP and UNICAMP, the heterogeneous structures of LMU have generated many more fruitful and enduring partnerships, including with the Federal University of Paraná, the Federal University of the State of Paraíba, the Federal University of the city of São João del Rei, the Federal University of the State of Minas Gerais, and the Escola Superior de Teologia. 

LMU’s International Office supports academics in the establishment of new cooperation initiatives and serves as the first point of contact for students and researchers. Further information for prospective international students can be found at https://www.lmu.de/en/study/degree-students/
