The flexibility of Blended Intensive Programmes can be used to internationalise the curriculum and develop a global mindset among staff and students. BIPs can widen access to international experiences to a more diverse cohort of students, and they can help to develop mutually beneficial collaboration with international partners.
During this session, Lars Banzhaf (CIVIS Head of Mobility, University of Tübingen), Alexandru Cartis (CIVIS Head of the Education Unit, University of Bucharest), Leonie Röthler (Student Ambassador for CIVIS at PLUS) and Maria Isabel Soldevila Brea (CIVIS Head of Communication, Université libre de Bruxelles) provided practical examples of how to plan, implement and organise BIPs.
Mr. Banzhaf, Mr. Cartis and Ms Soldevila Brea are also acitive speakers during the 2024 edition of the EAIE conference (European Association for International Education) in Toulouse, on the same topic.
