STAR-track is a multi-disciplinary exchange programme in English taking place during the autumn semester.

Team up with students with a different cultural and study background. A STAR semester consists of a total of 30 ECTS, combining 15 ECTS professional skills in your study field with 15 ECTS future proof skills of your choice.

Combine these with 15 ECTS future proof skills of your choice:
