Courses offered in English
Important! Read this first before selecting courses!
Please note that if a course is labelled as "1st/2nd" semester, this means it runs an entire academic year, so it is one course that takes up both semesters. Which means that if you are here as an exchange student for only one semester, you cannot take these courses.
For some courses, please check if you meet the prerequisites:
