Foreign students at German universities fall into two distinct
groups: Bildungsinlaender and Bildungsauslaender. Bildungs-
inlaender are students of other nationalities who have obtained
their higher education entrance qualification in Germany, while
Bildungsauslaender are students of other nationalities who
have obtained their higher education entrance qualification out-
side Germany. Bildungsinlaender have usually lived in Germany
for a long period and attended a German school before going to The central data basis on foreign students in Germany is the German
university here, whereas Bildungsauslaender usually come to Federal Statistical Office’s statistics on students and examinations.
Germany primarily in order to study here. These data are collected by universities in accordance with statu-
tory provisions, examined by the statistical offices of the federal

On the topic of international mobility of German students or gradu-

abroad as part of a domestic study programme (temporary study-
related visits abroad) and study-related visits abroad with the aim
of taking a degree abroad (degree-related international mobility).
The findings on degree-related international mobility were Since there are no official statistics regarding the total number
collected by the German Federal Statistical Office in statistical of temporary study-related visits abroad by German students,
