A Bridge Between Saxony and Chile
The Saxon Science Liaison Office Chile (SSLO-cl) fosters partnerships, research collaboration, and student exchange between Chile and the Free State of Saxony, Germany.
SSLO-cl is an initiative of the Free State of Saxony, funded by the Saxon State Ministry for Science, Culture and Tourism (SMWK) and coordinated by TU Chemnitz. Our office is located in Santiago de Chile at the Deutsch-Chilenischer Bund.
We are not a recruitment office. We are a bridge — enabling knowledge exchange, supporting Chilean students who seek international experience, and building lasting institutional partnerships that benefit both regions.
Building deep, structured ties between Chilean and Saxon universities based on mutual benefit and long-term collaboration.
Supporting Chilean students in gaining international experience in Saxony — with no tuition fees, affordable living, and strong career pathways.
Joint projects in green hydrogen, natural resources, mining technology, and innovation transfer — areas where Chile and Saxony are natural partners.
Growing a community of Chilean-Saxon alumni who serve as ambassadors, mentors, and bridges between both regions for years to come.
World-class education. No tuition fees. Affordable living. A gateway to central Europe.
