Incoming exchange students
We welcome incoming exchange students from our partner institutions under the Erasmus+ programme and also through our international exchange partnerships with universities outside of Europe.
COVID-19 update
During the current academic year, teaching and learning at DMU has been delivered in a hybrid format with a mixture of face-to-face classes and remote learning. Arrangements for the next academic year (2021-22) have not yet been confirmed. We will work to ensure that any new government requirements are met and that our campus is a safe place to study. All nominated students and partners will be updated directly if there are further changes that may impact our ability to host or send exchange students abroad.
Please visit the Your DMU Future microsite for the latest updates.
