Semester Exchange

Each semester the Faculty of Health welcomes more than 40 international exchange students from our many partner universities. The majority of our visiting exchange students enroll in our international semester in Medicine, but we also accept students for our dental programmes as well as our summer university courses.

Exchange students are all students enrolled at universities with which the Faculty of Health have exchange agreements. Before you can apply you need to be nominated by your home university.

At faculty level, our agreements are programme-specific. Exchange agreements include:
