Students at universities which have an exchange contract with the School of Engineering may apply to attend one or two semesters at our institution.  Such applications must be channelled via the International Coordinator at the home university.

The application file includes:

• Application Form
• Learning Agreement
• Letter of motivation
• 2 passport photos
• Confirmation of insurance policies to cover health, accident and personal liability in Switzerland

The International Office assists visiting students to find accommodation. Students interested in housing in Switzerland must indicate this by submitting the corresponding accommodation application form.

Applying students should download the ECTS Brochure School of Engineering in order to select the teaching modules they wish to attend.

The International Coordinators at the home institution will then forward the files to the FHNW’s International Coordinator.

Students can download the forms and should acquaint themselves with the regulatory information about visas, insurance and deadlines.
