For students who have no (or not sufficient) international experience, it is recommended that at least 15 credits of their Master’s program has an international dimension. The international experience could be obtained by taking courses at a foreign institute (preferably Q5 and Q6), doing an internship abroad (preferably Q5 and/or Q6), or working for part of the Final Project abroad (in Q7 and Q8), or combine such activities. However, the individual planning might deviate from this preferential scheduling. This means that students may go abroad anytime.
This will give the students the possibility to:
- Get experience in working outside the home-university, learning about how international organizations work;
- Interact with and understanding different cultures, languages, habits;
- Start an international network including young, and highly educated colleagues abroad.
