Mandatory application form
The following documents must be attached to your application.
Exchange programmes have different agreement owners
Agreements, whether part of an exchange programme or not, are always signed between two parties (agreement owners). These agreements can exist at the university, faculty, or departmental level. The agreement owner determines selection criteria, application deadlines, and other formalities. Since the application process varies depending on the agreement and circumstances, it is a good idea to check the practical details of your desired exchange destination early in your studies.
You should primarily use agreements linked to your programme. However, in many cases, it is possible to apply through an agreement from another department. For example, agreements from the Umeå School of Business, Economics Statistics can also be used by students in the Master of Science Programme in Industrial Engineering and Management.
Agreements at the Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics
The department has several agreements with other universities (mainly in Europe) that our students can use for exchange studies.
Bilateral agreements
At the moment, the Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics has a bilateral agreement with the departments of mathematics at Sungkyunkwan University in Republic of Korea (South Korea), Suleyman Demirel University in Kazakhstan, and Zhejiang University in China.
The Faculty of Science and Technology (to which the department belongs) also has bilateral agreements that you can use.
Erasmus+ agreements
The Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics has several agreements within the Erasmus+ programme.
