• Once arrived, you will be supervised by our partners, your school and the International Relations Office, benefiting from 30 years of experience in the field.

• All partner universities have been chosen for the quality of their teaching and welcome – all are accredited on both regional/national and/or international level

• Lectures are taught by teachers that are also professionals and/or teacher-researchers – at Doctorate level. They can be figures of the political, economic, diplomatic world.

Whether before, during or after, these semesters abroad aim to allow you to:

If it is well prepared and done, an academic stay or an internship abroad represents a fantastic accelerator of personal and professional development, in addition to the academic knowledge you will benefit from.
