    Student Exchange Agreements

    Of the universities participating in academic exchange agreements, a total of 12 universities in 7 countries also have student exchange agreements in place with the Faculty of Engineering and Graduate School of Engineering. These student exchange agreements facilitate exchange programs that exempt overseas students from paying tuition fees at the partner university if they have already paid tuition at the university at which they are enrolled, and for the exchange of credits, to allow some part of academic credits earned at the partner university to be counted as credits at the university at which the student is enrolled.
