xplor - Environmental Education Student Exchange Program

What can I study?

How does this exchange program work?

There is a mandatory sustainability subject that you have to take to fulfill the rules of the program, either at your host university or while on exchange. Apart from that, you have a wide choice of subjects that you can select from. You will be expected to take a full study load for the semester as defined by your chosen university, check the full time load rules for each university below. The subjects you choose must be approved by your host university and your chosen university.

What are the mandatory subjects I can choose from?

The rule is that you must complete one of these sustainability subjects as part of your degree. You can find out details about the subjects from the university handbooks. You can contact the convenor of the subject to check the content of the unit and that the unit is being offered that semester.
