Semester Exchange

Program Information

The USP Department has a strategic partnership with Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany, one of the preeminent schools of planning and design in the world. As part of the strategic partnership, we have the opportunity to send several students (USP and/or RED majors) to study for a semester in Weimar, Germany during either the Bauhaus Fall Semester from September 2024 - February 2025 or the Bauhaus Summer Semester from April - July 2025. USP has one of the only undergraduate department-to-department study abroad programs in the UC system. The program has complete tuition reciprocity (you will pay your UC San Diego tuition and study at Bauhaus). All courses are approved for UC San Diego credit and all can be applied to the requirements for the USP major and minor. USP Seniors may complete their senior sequence requirement at Bauhaus. Some of the courses can also be applied to the RED major. Rising sophomores and juniors are strongly encouraged to apply.
