Courses for Exchange Students

  • The language of instruction is English.
  • The study location is the charming town of Viljandi.
  • Each exchange student will have an individual study plan. For more information, please contact Krista Tamm at [email protected].

All exchange students have access to a selection of general courses, regardless of their specialisation. These courses fall into two categories: those that provide an overview of the Estonian language and culture, including practical approaches, and those that focus on developing various social competencies.
