Faculties not open to exchange students

The University of Zambia cannot guarantee teaching in the following disciplines: Human Medicine, Health Sciences, Nursing Sciences and Public Health. This does not affect other disciplines.

What can you study here?

There is no course information/only a few courses on UNZA's home page. Please choose a degree program and year for your learning agreement and where it fits in to your UH degree. 

How many credits do you need to complete?

Four courses per academic year
This destination’s workload for credits changes depending on the Faculty / year of studies. International Exchange Services is not able to make a recommendation for the destination for credits and that is why the minimum recommendation is marked as amount of courses and not credits. The International Exchange Services recommends that the credit transfer be made by the actual workload done for a course.   

Terms

January - July / full academic year January - December

Housing, costs and fees

The exchange agreement includes free accommodation in a student residence.

Other important matters

A semester / Academic year. An exchange lasting the whole academic year is easier to organise in terms of the teaching available. The academic year at the University of Zambia consists of three teaching periods. Some courses last the whole academic year, which means that courses lasting two teaching periods are not offered in all fields. Please note that the academic year at UNZA starts in January, so full academic year exchanges last from January - December.

Exchange opportunities available 

2 students for one term or academic year
