Study abroad

Would you like to gain (more) international experience? Then you can take electives during an exchange semester or conduct your thesis research project abroad. Both institutes have many international contacts that you can benefit from.
Please note that, as Governance of Sustainability offers a lot of core courses, doing an exchange semester will in most cases lead to an extension of your studies with one semester. Please contact the study advisors for more information.
