We, 18. Dezember 2024 → "The best education for a clever person is found in travel," Johann Wolfgang von Goethe once said. Inspired by this idea, Aalen University has built a strong network of more than 130 partner universities around the world since 1985. This initiative not only offers students the invaluable opportunity to gain international experience but also attracts students from around the globe for exchange semesters in Aalen. As part of a newly launched interview series, the university highlights the stories of international exchange students and their journeys to Aalen. Among them is Rita Bergami, who has been studying in Aalen since September. The Ostalb region marks another chapter in Germany for the Italian marketing student, who had previously explored other parts of the country. In the interview, she explains what makes Aalen special to her and how the university supports international students with a variety of programs and services.
