NordPlus programme

In October 2009, the School of Law joined NordPlus, a network of law faculties from 22 Nordic universities. Under the Nordplus programme, undergraduate and/or postgraduate students have the opportunity to study at the network's partner universities.

Each partner university agrees to accept at least two students (see list below for exceptions and specific agreements). Students can study at a partner university for either one semester or one academic year.

Scholarship

To study at a partner university, you may be awarded a scholarship to cover part of your travel and living expenses. The scholarship is normally paid as follows: travel costs to Iceland 660 euros, to other destinations 330 euros + 200 euros per month living allowance. To receive the scholarship, an application is submitted to the general programme coordinator via the School of Law's coordinator.
