Minor Abroad

During your study at Fontys you have the option to take a semester abroad. To do so, you can enrol for the Minor Study Abroad, enabling you to study at one of our partner universities. You can either choose for a Fontyswide partner or a Fontys School partner.
Besides that you can consider the minor Global Acting in IT.

Fontys School of ICT partners

• FHICT has an exchange agreement with a large number of international partner schools.
• Especially within Europe and increasingly with partner universities outside of Europe. 
• You are almost sure of placement, due to the large number of partner schools. 

Fontyswide Partners

• Partner contracts have been drawn up at Fontys level for all Fontys students.
• These concern both non-European and European universities.
• Students of all bachelor programmes are admissable, so at popular Fontyswide partner schools you have a smaller chance of placement.
• Selection procedure for nomination at an available place is done at a central level with a strict deadline.

Freemover

• If none of the partner schools suit you, you can also decide to go to a self-chosen foreign university without a contract with Fontys. 
• Choose the educational establishment and programme/subjects in consultation with this school.
• You also arrange everything yourself, from enrolment and acceptance to proving the level and quality of education.
• You often have to pay tuition fees in addition to those of Fontys.
