Exchange programs Chonnam National University, Gwangju

Within an exchange agreement with Chonnam National University in Gwangju, Korea, one study abroad spot is available for Heidelberg University´s students.

The language of instruction is usually Korean. English-language courses are also offered in some degree programs. Exchange students have the opportunity to take Korean language courses. The courses are open to students from all departments. Subject study in the same field of study as at Heidelberg University depends on the courses offered at the partner university and is therefore not guaranteed.

For students of medicine, please notice:
The exchange agreements with the partner universities do not refer to the medical faculties. This means that you have to attend courses offered by other faculties. Should this in principle not be a problem for you, we look forward to receiving your applications.
