AZUR

If you would like to take courses at another Swiss university, you can participate in a partial mobility program.

The AZUR Triangle brings together the Universities of Neuchâtel, Lausanne, and Geneva.

This network allows students to enroll in majors or individual courses at another university when they are not offered at their home institution.

All practical information for UniNE students is available on the Triangle AZUR intranet page.

Details about ECTS recognition and other practical matters can be found on the faculty’s intranet page Mobilité suisse partielle.

All practical information for UNIL and UNIGE students is available on the Azur page of the University of Neuchâtel’s website.
