Where you can go on exchange studies

The University of Gothenburg has partnership agreements with a large number of universities across the world, so students usually have a large selection to choose from.
Where you can go depends on your studies
To study abroad as an exchange student, Gothenburg University must have an exchange agreement with the foreign university. What country and university that may be right for you depends on your field of study.
Many of the faculties and departments have exchange agreements that are limited to a specific study field. You can only apply for subject-specific exchange spots if you are studying a programme within that subject area.
There are also GU-wide exchange spots that encompass a variety of subject areas. These are available to most students at the university, but availability may vary between faculties.
