*Learning Agreement is a contract between the university of origin and the applicant and serves to determine the courses you will develop at the host university.

ATTENTION: You must choose to take the same subjects at the host university as those you do in the relevant semester at your faculty, so that the subjects and credits will be recognized when you return. If the selected subjects differ from those you would develop in your faculty in the relevant semester, then when you return you must develop/attend the courses (subjects) that do not fit at the University of Tirana.
