Exchange Programmes
Study abroad & exchange
This page is for University of Nottingham Ningbo, China students who would like to spend a year or a semester in another country. If you are studying outside the UK and would like to spend part of your degree at Nottingham, please see our section for visiting students .
The University of Nottingham, Ningbo, China offers a number of opportunities for students to spend time studying at one of our partner institutions overseas. Students can spend three to six weeks, one semester or, in some cases, up to one year studying at another University overseas. Information about each of the options is available via the UNNC International Office website.
There are currently three types of programmes available:
Exchange
These places are offered at no additional tuition fee cost to students. You will continue to pay your usual tuition fee to UNNC. Exchange places are normally limited to only one semester at participating Universities. Exchange students take modules for credit at the partner institution that count towards their degree at UNNC.
Study Abroad:
Students will be required to pay a study abroad fee to the host university instead of your usual UNNC tuition fee. Study Abroad students take modules for credit that count towards their degree at UNNC. In some cases, where permitted, a semester on Study Abroad can be combined with an Exchange semester (or another Study Abroad semester) for a total of up to one year.
In all cases, students will be expected to bear the costs of travel to/from the partner institution and local living expenses such as accommodation and food.
Most of the places available on the above programmes are at the University of Nottingham, UK and the University of Nottingham, Malaysia campuses. Other partner Universities offer between two and ten places each. Due to the expected demand for such places, those selected for overseas study will be limited to only one of the 5 choices indicated on the application form.
While UNNC will provide all possible assistance, the offer of a place on one of the above programmes is subject to the student meeting the receiving institution's admission requirements and obtaining the necessary visa.
How to apply
Application will be opened to all year 2 students at the beginning of each Spring semester. Students must submit application before deadline specified and wait for approval from international office. Students will be selected based on their year 2 semester one's academic merit.
