For 3 to 6 weeks during summer or winter break, students will have a taste of what it's like to study at some of the best universities around the globe and interact with students coming from different backgrounds. Global vision and language competence are two main takeaways in these programs. Moreover, the relatively short period allows students to examine whether they are fit for the longer Exchange or Visiting Student Program and/or serves to prepare themselves for these programs by developing higher language competence and knowledge of a foreign living environment and teaching methods.

Overseas Short-term Programs are at students' own expense. The flexible curriculum in Overseas Short-term Programs also allows students to arrange a class schedule that best suits their needs.
