Study abroad

Are you planning to complete part of your studies abroad? It can be a great way to enrich your education and gain new experiences. In the dedicated section on studying abroad, you’ll find practical information about the various options, popular destinations, and important application deadlines.

In semester 1 of year 2 you take research seminars and/or tutorials at advanced level. You are strongly advised to complete a substantial part of your coursework in your second year outside Utrecht University, whether at another Dutch university, a university abroad, or through courses offered by the Dutch national research institutes. 

Plan ahead

Only a limited number of student places are available. Be aware that application for studying abroad is a complicated and time-consuming process and that you should start the process on time.

Grants

A number of grants are available and Utrecht University has a number of working agreements with universities and institutions abroad in and outside of Europe.
