Most of you are probably familiar with the Erasmus + possibility of student mobility abroad, right? International exchanges are also made possible by the CEEPUS program, which consists of Central European countries, where you can also do research at some institutions abroad for your final thesis or go to lectures and take exams.The decision is yours.

These are Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Czech Republic, Montenegro, Croatia, Kosovo, Hungary, Northern Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and Serbia.
Students within the network can apply for funding that includes a scholarship, accommodation, and health care, and provides tuition waivers.
