Semester abroad

Semester abroad

Take your international experience one step further by spending a semester abroad.

In your third semester, you can choose to study at a university abroad. An exchange semester gives you the opportunity to experience a different academic environment, develop new perspectives and build international experience alongside your master's degree. NTNU has exchange agreements with universities around the world, giving you a wide range of destinations to explore.


Why study abroad?

Studying abroad is more than experiencing a new country. It can help you develop both academically and personally while preparing you to work in an international environment.

During an exchange semester, you can:

  • experience a new country, culture and academic environment
  • gain new perspectives on business, society and your field of study
  • take relevant courses that may not be available at NTNU
  • build an international network
  • develop independence, adaptability and intercultural skills that are valuable in working life

Where can you go?

NTNU has exchange agreements with universities in more than 100 countries, giving you many possibilities for studying abroad. Your choice of destination and courses must fit your study plan and be approved as part of your degree.
