Destination Database
- This
is the exchange destination database for the schools of technology
(CHEM, ELEC, ENG and SCI). Here you can search for information on
exchange oportunities, if you study in one of these schools. For more information, please, click on the partner university that you are interested in.
You can only apply for exchange during application periods. The information on destinations will be updated by the beginning of each application round.
Please note that only destinations marked as active are open for applications during the current application round. You can use the search criteria "Open for applications (active)" to find which destinations are available. If the destination is marked as "silent" it means that there are no seats available. Students in the schools of technology can apply to destinations of any of the four schools (CHEM, ELEC, ENG, SCI). Some destinations may have prioritized seats for certain school(s).
Note that in exceptional cases changes to the number of available seats are possible even after the selection round. Please note that number of seats is always subject to change and dependent on the mutual agreement with the partner university. The seats available for each destination are generally numbers for one term exchanges. Please check with the coordinator if you wish to apply for the whole academic year.
Please check the information for exchange students on the destination university’s web page. There you will always find the most up-to-date instructions!
Most exchange periods are realized through exchange programmes such as Erasmus (Europe) and Nordtek (Nordic countries). Another way to go abroad is through the bilateral agreements made between Aalto University and/or schools of technology and the host university.
The exact application periods can be checked from the Student Guide. The application rounds are held in:
- November (exchanges in Japan for the following academic year)
- January (exchanges for the following academic year)
- September (exchanges in the following spring term only, only destinations that have been left available from the January application round)
