Tuğçe Emine Köksar, Architecture student:
«It's so nice to be in Korea, more than I expected! … I have
many Korean friends and so much chance to speak and
improve my Korean! also my English. I'm so happy to be here
and I want to stay more! Thanks for the opportunity
Dalkhaajav Batkhuu, Engineering student:
«It is fantastic here. … The Seoul and University are
so astonishing, I wish I could stay here one more
semester.»
Sümeyye Çam, Law student:
«The university is much better than I expected. When I say that I study at USP,
people look at me with admiration! Most of my classmates are from France and
other European countries. During the orientation program I and Baver were
introduced as the first exchange students from Turkey, and everybody was very
kind to us. It is beautiful here, the city is huge and green, and very natural. The
only problem is that
it can be dangerous
to go out alone.»
ERASMUS+

programme for Higher Education students, teachers
and institutions. It provides opportunities for
students to study or undertake a work placement
abroad as part of their degree.
Traineeship
Internship
Work Placement
It is an important part of the
education of the students
which creates a smooth
transition to the labor
market.
Reasons to do an Internship Abroad
Make Your Resume Stand Out
-distinguish youself from other university students competing with
you in the job market
Expand your Global Network
- build a circle of international mentors, contacts, and friends
- internship supervisor comments on your work ethic and skill level
Grow your ‘Soft Skills’
‘Soft Skills’-difficulty interacting with people in a work setting
-learn how to bridge cultural and language barriers to successfully
work with others, and to communicate in a global work
environment.
 Gain Confidence
- grow in your independence and self-reliance throughout your
summer internships program
 Prove You Can Take the Initiative
-by undertaking an internship abroad, show future employers
that you are the kind of person who makes opportunities for
yourself rather than waiting for something to happen. Initiative is
one of three most important attributes for employment.
 Develop a Global Perspective and Understanding
-gain broader view of current events as well as topics within your
own field of study. This will help you to view future challenges
differently and solve problems from a different perspective.
