At partner universities students can follow courses in international relations, international and comparative law, public and private law, and the history of international relations and politics.

  1. before departure, the subjects to be studied abroad are identified based on the student's preferences and in agreement with the teacher ("Learning Agreement");
  2. after coming back, exams taken abroad are recognized upon presentation of the "Transcript of Records" of the partner University and grade conversion.
