FORTHEM Campus is a semester-long Erasmus+ funded student exchange that the FORTHEM Alliance partners host on a rotating principle. Each FORTHEM Campus has a different theme which corresponds with the FORTHEM Lab that the hosting university leads. In autumn 2023, the topic is multilingualism, approached from the fields of languages, intercultural communication as well as Education and Social Sciences. FORTHEM Campus offers courses in three different modules in different areas of knowledge and eligible for recognition. The Approaches to Multilingualism course is compulsory for all students participating in the exchange period.
