Student mobility: introduction

A period of study at another university or academic institution, preferably in a different language area, is designed to foster the broadening of the student’s cultural, scientific and linguistic perspective and consolidate the acquired knowledge and skills.

USI supports its Bachelor’s and Master’s students in planning and realising a study period abroad through its International Relations and Study-abroad Office.

Information on studying abroad for Bachelor’s and Master’s students:

Reports written by USI students who have spent a semester abroad (after the 2014 autumn semester) are available for reference on the students’ reports page on the usi.ch website. Opinions and ideas are exclusively those of the authors.
