International Exchange Programmes

Since 2005 the Austrian Theresan Military Academy has been exchanging lecturers and students with other countries. The main purpose is to increase interoperability and intercultural competence so as to manage future challenges.

So far main effort for outgoing-activities has been the ITJ (International Training on the Job) for students to collect experiences as platoon leader or on equivalent level in 16 countries abroad.
The "European Initiative for the exchange of young officers inspired by ERASMUS" is a EU-programme which should increase young officers' exchange. Within this programme the Theresan Military Academy offers various modules and has taken over the lead for the Peace Support Operations Module within the EU.

Details about all incoming- and outgoing- activities you will find on the Website of the International Office.
