As a modern European university, the FernUniversität in Hagen considers internationalization to be an indication of quality in teaching and learning, research, and support for early career scholars. Internationalization is firmly anchored as a key objective for the university through the Vice-Presidency for Continuing Education, Knowledge Transfer and International Affairs. The Internationalization Strategy 2020 is the frame of reference for the university’s current strategic and operative goals in this area.
