Om studiet

Jeg satte veldig pris på emneoppbyggingen. UiS tilbyr mange interessante emner i biologisk kjemi, og det å kunne velge fag som interesserte meg var veldig motiverende.

Utveksling

Ved å reise til en av våre partnerinstitusjoner i utlandet som en del av studiet har du mulighet til å få en unik utdanning. I tillegg til økte karrieremuligheter, vokser du som person og får se faget ditt fra en ny vinkel.

Schedule for the exchange

Students can go on a study abroad experience during the 2nd semester of the master's programme in Biological Chemistry.

During the exchange semester you should choose courses related to your field of study. The courses you want to take abroad must be approved by the department. It is important that the courses from abroad do not overlap with courses you have already taken.

More opportunities

In addition to the recommended universities listed below, The University of Stavanger has a number of agreements with universities outside Europe that are applicable to all students at The University of Stavanger, provided that they find a relevant subject offering. Within the Nordic region, all students can use the Nordlys and Nordtek networks.
