A Week on the Road: Study Trip Across Europe
The study trip in the fifth semester is always a highlight for our bachelor’s students. In small groups, they spend a week travelling to destinations across Europe, visiting companies, organisations and partner universities. Along the way, they gain valuable insights into regional economic issues as well as the cultural and political context of their host country. They also have the opportunity to explore local sights and experience everyday life from a different perspective. It is a shared experience that stays with them long after the trip has ended.
This year, our students travelled to fifteen different destinations: Athens, Barcelona, Budapest, Chișinău, Hamburg, Copenhagen, Limassol, Lisbon, Reykjavík, Rome, Schleswig-Holstein, Tirana, Valletta, Vienna and Zurich.
We have put together the highlights from each group, along with a selection of photos and impressions from the week.
Many thanks to all students for sharing their experiences and providing such great photos!
