Digital INGENIUM Staff Day 2022

On Wednesday, October 19, our first ever INGENIUM Staff Day was held virtually. Staff from the alliance’s various international departments exchanged thoughts on challenges and procedures students face when seeking to study abroad. In many exciting discussions we embraced our commitment to lower the boundaries for our students to study abroad and encourage mobility. Offering more internship options for visiting students and extending the English-speaking courses represent  important bricks in achieving these goals.
