We recommend that you go abroad in the third semester. If you choose to write a master's essay of 30 credits, you can take courses giving 20 credits at the institution abroad. If you choose to write a master's thesis of 60 credits, it may be useful to move part of the work on the thesis from the third to the second semester, so that you can take more than one course in your semester abroad. To organise this please contact the student advisor well ahead of your stay.
