Exchange student are required to maintain full-time student status. This means that students must be enrolled in courses equivalent to 15 ECTS credits pr. block.
Individual study
Exchange students may choose to do an individual study project as part of the BSc or MSc degree at their home university. It is essential that the student has a good and well thought-through idea of the theme of the study. A faculty teacher is appointed as supervisor and an agreement is signed between the student and the teacher describing the title, contents, ECTS credits etc. of the study. A supervisor will normally meet with the student between two and four times in order to discuss the progress of the individual study or any problems encountered. Most supervisors also choose to read and comment on parts of the study.
Students applying to do an individual study must submit a detailed project description with their application.
