Module Exchange in Data Science and AI

Would you like to take exciting modules from other universities... without doing a whole exchange semester? To be abroad virtually and continue studying normally at your university at the same time?

What?  

The Una Europa Module Exchange in the field of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence is a virtual exchange of individual modules between four partner universities. It provides a flexible and easily accessible opportunity to participate in an international academic exchange. Through the Module Exchange, you can explore modules not available at your home university, allowing you to specialise in unique topics that match your interests. You'll also become part of a diverse, international community and collaborate with peers from different backgrounds on a wide range of contemporary issues.

How? 

There are 13 modules available, offered by the four partnering universities. You can choose one or more modules and will be able to access all the module materials online, as well as participate and complete the module online. Upon completing the module successfully you will be credited the respective ECTS credits to the degree programme of your home university. The recognition is legally established. To confirm which modules are eligible for your degree programme, consult the filter below.

Why? 

We wish to give you the opportunity to make use of the modules offered at all four partner universities, creating greater academic interconnectedness and fostering transnational exchange. You will benefit by specialising in topics and taking modules not offered at your home university, while being immersed in an international and diverse academic atmosphere. 

Eligibility

Only selected Master's programmes at the partner universities are participating in the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Module Exchange. To find out if your degree programme is included and whether you are eligible, please use the filter below.

Financial Cost

The Una Europa Module Exchange is free of cost for participants. You will stay enrolled at your home university and pay regular tuition there.
