Exchange Program



News and Current Events > > >
Overview
The Faculty of Science and Technology (FST) has academic links with several universities and academic networks world-wide. Through these links, students of FST and overseas universities have the opportunity for mutual student exchange.
Participating in a student exchange is an opportunity to get valuable experience, not only academically by studying other courses at other universities, but also personally. It can be a very rewarding and enriching experience to live in another country, get to know another culture and other ways of thinking and doing things, as well as learning to be independent and taking care of oneself.
