Integration Week
Since 2012, EUSMAT hosts an annual Integration Week for new AMASE students. The Integration Week focuses on preparing the new AMASE students for their studies in Europe as well as giving them first insights into the AMASE-Master Programme.
Students will also have the chance to get to know each other. The EUSMAT team is present at all times and answers any questions that come up. The experiences gathered during this week helps the students improve their future research skills while also expanding their personal and professional network.
AMASE Integration Week 2023:
19th August – 26th August
This year, the Integration Week (IW) will be held in two parts: a first part in digital form and a second in presence part in Saarbrücken. The circumstances in our programme countries are very different and not predictable. In order to provide you with a well organized IW, it was decided to create a presence format so all of you will be able to assist to all the events of the IW. We have already prepared a time schedule for the digital format, however, we still have to discuss the changes with our external partners, so the detailed plan of the IW will be available for the participants only a few weeks before the event. We have agreed to arrange the IW parallel to the Professional Summer School (with the 2-year students).
➡️ The digital part of the IW will take place on August 9th and 10th, 2023.
➡️ The in presence IW will take place from August 19, 2023 until August 26, 2023.
Don’t worry besides the informative parts we will also organize fun parts.
ATTENTION! The participation in both the Integration Week and the Professional Summer School is compulsory and part of the Programme.
The registration for this year’s Integration Week is now open. Please register here before July 9, 2023.
Impressions from past Integration Weeks
In 2018 both the Integration Week and the Professional Summer School of AMASE were evaluated by the Center for Evaluation. You can find the results in this report.
In 2020 and 2021, the Integration Week was held in digital format due to the COVID 19 crisis.
Every year, EUSMAT organizes one or more Integration Weeks for the different study programmes. During this week, the students taking part are prepared for their stay abroad. Intercultural training plays an especially large role in this preparation.
For further information you can have a look at Intercultural Competence, Intercultural qualification and integration for STEM-students (IK-MINT).
