The "International Electives" program provides an opportunity to spend your profile semester at a university abroad. This can be either at one of the many partner institutions with which AU has established exchange agreements or at a university of your own choosing that you independently arrange.
This page offers a comprehensive overview of the planning process, along with key deadlines that you should consider. It is important to note that planning must commence in the first semester of your Master’s degree program.
This section provides an overview of the key steps involved in the planning process.
Please be aware that this overview is limited to the actions required to secure AU's approval for your stay. Additional deadlines may apply at the university abroad, particularly concerning matters such as SU, scholarships, housing, and other logistical arrangements.
Once you have been awarded an exchange agreement and confirmed your place, you must apply for admission at the foreign university.
You will receive an email with information on how to apply and the deadlines you need to be aware of at the foreign university.
