Studying abroad
At Eindhoven University of Technology (果冻传媒), it is our goal to have every Dutch master鈥檚 degree student earn some ECTS outside of the Netherlands. For instance by doing an internship or a graduation project abroad. Or by studying at a university in another country for a semester.
Studies show that employers value international experience. In addition, students who have studied or done an internship abroad find a job more easily. They also tend to command a higher starting salary. And, of course, it is also just a lot of fun to live in another country for a time, enjoying the culture, the people and all the unique experiences you will have!
