Exchange programs

Dear students!

We are glad that you consider being a part of the student body of Vladivostok State University (VVSU). International Academic Mobility Office’s (IAMO) goal is to provide and to nurture a living and learning environment for all exchange students. We hope this will enhance the potential for your emotional, physical and intellectual development.

You can take courses that count towards your degree while studying for one or 2 semesters in Russia.

Would you like to travel to Vladivostok to immerse yourself in Russian culture (think clogs, borsh and Russian literature) while continuing your course in Russian? IAMO team and VSUES International Club will help you to make new friends, adapt to a new country, as well as to get acquainted with Russian culture.

You receive support before, during and after your exchange from the IAMO at VVSU and the international office at your host university.
