Partnership Agreements with Non-European Universities

This section is designed for professors who wish to formalize connections with colleagues abroad (outside the EU) and enable mobility for their students during their studies at Unifr. It is horizontal mobility, meaning that the students remain enrolled at their home university, and their degree will be delivered by their home university. The aim is to acquire a limited number of credits from the partner university in accordance with a program approved before the student’s departure.

The International Relations Office is the main contact at University of Fribourg for all information concerning the preliminary stages, management, and monitoring of such projects.

A template for a partnership agreement is provided by the IRO. This document has already been approved by the Rectorate to expedite the procedure.

Whether the candidates come from inside or outside the EU does not change the way in which their applications are processed.
