What is the Farabi Exchange Program?
The "Farabi Exchange Program," officially known as the Inter-University Student and Faculty Exchange Program, facilitates the exchange of students and faculty members among universities and high-technology institutes that offer associate, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees.
The Farabi Exchange Program aims for students or faculty members to continue their educational and teaching activities at a higher education institution other than their own for one or two semesters.
The implementation principles of the Farabi Exchange Program are detailed in the Regulation and Procedures.
