Study abroad
All students are entitled to a period of study abroad as an integrated part of their study programmes if they so wish.
Main content
The person with academic responsibility for the individual study programme will make provisions for and recommend a period of study at selected universities abroad. The academic content of such recommended periods of study abroad must be quality-assured, and students must be advised about and offered pre-approved courses that entitle them to exemption from one or more parts of their study programme at the University of Bergen. Students who participate in the Erasmus exchange programme must complete a ‘learning agreement’ form.
Together with the Divison of Student Affairs, those responsible for study programmes must also ensure that students receive adequate written and oral information about recommended studies abroad and security conditions at the place of study abroad before departure. Students preparing for a period of study abroad must register before departure, using a standard form prepared for the purpose, and must submit a report about their experience on their return to the University of Bergen.
