Published on / opublikowano 23-01-2018

European University Viadrina is pleased to announce its 3rd Staff Training Week to which we invite colleagues from all our partner universities.

Date

April 16th – 20th, 2018

Topic

“Mass or Class – Limits of Mobility”

We would like to take a closer look at the two seemingly contrary principles of quality and quantity of mobility as well as its limits within three areas:

1) Mobility

• How do we define and measure quality of partnerships?
• The student factor – making study abroad appealing for incoming and outgoing mobility
• Incentives to get academic and administrative staff abroad.

2) Recruitment

• Do Higher Education Institutions need student recruitment?
• Where does student recruitment start and end?
• What are the challenges and chances of regionally focused strategic student recruitment?

3) Refugees

• How does the influx of refugees shape Higher Education?
• What are the assets and limits of refugee Higher Education programs?
• How can we successfully integrate refugees in university life and existing mobility programs?

All colleagues from partner universities interested in these topics are invited to join us!
