Study abroad and exchanges

The International Team encourages students to study abroad and is the first stop for information about the university's overseas study programs.

Opportunities for studying abroad

Unlike ERASMUS, these programs are organised by the university rather than the department, and they last a full year in duration, replacing the normal second year of study.

Consult the International Office's Study Abroad page for further details.
