International IT Weeks abroad in Spring 2024
If you want to develop your international and intercultural skills but do not want to go abroad for a semester, a short term programme, an international week or Summer of Winter School, could be a great opportunity.
Within the Businet-IT network every participating university offers an international week and so they can send students to other universities. See more information below.
You can join an International IT Week at a foreign partner university yearly in the Spring semester. The weeks are organised on several dates, different destinations and subjects in cooperation with partners in the Businet-IT network. Programme of these weeks contents working in project groups on a certain subject and cultural and social activities too.
A great opportunity to learn another language or experience a new culture!
