Spending part of your degree abroad is an opportunity to explore new academic environments, build global experience, and develop valuable skills. The Department of Economics encourages students to consider studying abroad through both Erasmus and non-EU exchange programmes.

Study Abroad Options

Students can apply for a semester or full academic year abroad through:

  • Erasmus+, the EU programme that supports student mobility across European universities
  • Non-EU Exchanges, which offer placements at universities in North America, Asia, Australia, and beyond

Both options give students the chance to deepen their academic knowledge, gain intercultural experience, and expand their personal and professional horizons.

How to Apply

Information about destinations, eligibility, and the application process is available on the School of Social Sciences and Philosophy’s Study Abroad page. Students are also encouraged to attend information sessions and review the application timelines carefully.
