Exact and natural sciences personalized courses

For Whom?

This is a program intended for undergraduate non-Spanish speaking students that would like to enroll at the Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences. Foreign students could take personalized courses of their interest and would be enrolled as regular UdeA students, having a close accompaniment of their instructor during academic activities.

Most of the courses are offered in English, but there are some in Portuguese, depending on the instructor’s proficiency. 

Check the list of the courses here.

How to apply

Students from foreign institutions who have an agreement with UdeA might have the possibility to attend one or two academic terms at the university, exempted from tuition. The courses that foreign students intend to study must be previously approved by both the students’ home university and the host institution.

  • Students, from non-English or non-Portuguese speaking countries, must certify a Common European Framework of Reference B1 language proficiency in the language of the personalized course they intend to enroll.

Documentation

The home university must send to the International Affairs Office at UdeA, the following documentation of their students in PDF, to the emails: movilidadinter@udea.edu.co and apoyointer@udea.edu.co Applications of foreign students done personally will not be accepted.

  1. Official transcripts (in English or Spanish).

Health Insurance
