This semester, more than 50 university students will begin their academic exchange, a challenging process aimed at developing skills, knowledge, and abilities with a global perspective. For this reason, the UDP International Relations Office held a meeting with the students to support and guide them through this formative stage.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are very happy,\u201d commented Anoek van den Berg regarding this new process. \u201cThey are about to experience a life-changing event,\u201d she stated, encouraging them to make the most of this experience. Richard Gillibrand, International Student Mobility Coordinator, emphasized that \u201cinternational mobility is much more than studying in another country.\u201d He indicated that \u201cit is a transformative experience that broadens students’ perspectives, strengthens their personal development, and provides them with tools to thrive in an increasingly global and interconnected world.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLiving an academic experience abroad allows them to develop intercultural skills, improve their communication abilities, adapt to new challenges, and build international networks that will serve them throughout their professional lives,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n
During the meeting, the Directorate team addressed topics such as managing administrative procedures and documents, and answered questions about the exchange program. In addition, professionals from the Student Mental Health Department of the Student Affairs Office gave a presentation on how to cope with the culture shock inherent in a process of this nature.<\/p>\n
For their part, the students expressed enthusiasm for this new academic challenge. \u201cIt\u2019s a great opportunity because, in the field I\u2019m interested in, which is International Law, we have the chance to learn more about International Law in different countries, how it\u2019s communicated in relation to other international experiences, and how it\u2019s regulated,\u201d said Antonia Leiva, a law student.<\/p>\n
Thus, Basti\u00e1n Molina, an advertising student, commented: \u201cMy expectation is to learn how advertising develops on another continent, in another context, with other people.\u201d Ultimately, he emphasized, \u201cit\u2019s important to understand other contexts, because advertising changes from country to country.\u201d<\/p>\n
This semester, 52 students will travel to different universities around the world. This is thanks to the agreements the University maintains with renowned academic institutions. Spain (33), Italy (6), the Netherlands (2), the United Kingdom (2), Brazil (2), and Mexico (2) are just some of the destinations chosen by the students.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
