JMC Academy offers the opportunity for students to spend one trimester abroad at Fontys University Academy for the Creative Economy (ACE) in Tilburg, Netherlands. As part of the exchange, JMC Academy receives Fontys University ACE students in February each year.
The JMC exchange students study alongside others from around the world as they undertake subjects offered by the Fontys ACE. Students receive subject credits that are the equivalent of one full trimester of study. All subjects are delivered in English at the Tilburg campus.
