You will also find our current course book here. We update it every semester. It contains all English-taught courses for exchange students. We will provide the course book for your semester about one month before classes start.
Choosing Your Courses
As an exchange student, you can freely choose all courses from this book. The faculty or department does not matter. Please ask your home university which courses they recognise.
Are you completing a double-degree programme? Then you can often choose from even more courses. Please contact your programme manager to discuss your options.
