EPHEC organizes 7 different short international programmes. We call most of them International Weeks. Some of these programmes are organized in the BIP (=Blended Intensive Programmes) format which means that a virtual component is added to the programme.
What is an International Week?
International Weeks create a challenging environment for students as they will be working on projects in international groups, mixing as many nationalities as possible.
Participating in such a programme enables students to
- Communicate efficiently in English
- Demonstrate the ability to function in an intercultural environment
- Engage and collaborate in an interdisciplinary team
- Demonstrate project management skills in a team environment
- Evaluate and apply new technical skills and method
2 or 3 ECTS (in case of BIP's) are given upon completion of the programme.
