A basic prerequisite for the exchange of University students with foreign University students is the existence of collaboration Protocols between the University and the foreign Universities, being approved by the Senate. 

Each Department appoints one Exchanging Coordinator each year from its members. The Exchanging Coordinator is responsible for all categories of student exchanges. 

By the sixth week at the latest from the beginning of each semester prior to the semester of the intended exchange, the Exchanging Coordinator notifies students the foreign exchange curricula in which exchanges can be made, as well as the maximum number of students that can be exchanged. 

Students interested in participating in exchanges declare their wish to the Coordinator, through a procedure established by the Department by the end of the 8th semester week, at the latest, of the semester preceding the semester of the intended exchange. 

By the end of the 10th week of each semester, the Coordinator submits to the Council of the Department a proposal with a list of students for exchanges. For each candidate, the following are stated: 

(a) The lessons he / she intends to attend (each lesson is accompanied by a short description). 

(b) Modules to be credited (compulsory, restricted or free choice). 

(c) In case of one of the modules being a dissertation, it is up to the discretion of the Department to settle the procedural issues (for one-year diploma thesis curricula, these can be partly elaborated). 

A postgraduate student may attend classes and / or prepare part of his / her dissertation at another university provided that his or her Department has approved same and provided that the classes do not exceed one-third of its total programme.
