| About the university | We offer bachelor’s and master’s degrees in four different fields. You can apply to our degree programmes by joint application or via Open Studies. Open UAS and Continuing Studies offer the chance to deepen your expertise or learn something new, through short courses or longer programmes. We also welcome our partner universities’ students, who can spend a semester or academic year with us as exchange students. Some of our degree programmes also offer the possibility of obtaining a double degree. |
Requirements, fees and deadlines shown here are the ones our counsellors work from, but the university can change them at any intake. We confirm the live figures with the institution before an application is filed, so treat this page as the starting point rather than the final word.
