An exchange student’s term of study will usually last for either one semester or one academic year; such exchanges are usually reciprocal.

Such study must be in full accordance with the regulations of both schools. A student who successfully completes such a program has the option of obtaining one degree from one university or two degrees from both.

A large number of students chose to participate in the short-term programs during summer or winter vacations, such as the programs in collaboration with University of Cambridge, University of Oxford, National University of Singapore, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, etc. Meanwhile, some students took the scientific research practice and training program in Missouri University of Science and Technology, Stanford University, etc. In the national first-level discipline ranking of 2012, the index of “student international exchange” of EIC ranked first.
