Staff Mobility Spotlight: Visiting Med Uni Graz!
As part of Erasmus+ KA171, we were delighted to welcome four guests from South Africa and Namibia last week: two from Namibia (University of Namibia) and two from South Africa (iYunivesithi Walter Sisulu, iWS). Our guests included colleagues from the fields of surgery, international student support, and internationalisation & partnerships.
The program focused on topics such as:
- Internationalisation & exchange of best practices
- Student mobility management for medical students
- Peer-to-peer student support & the Austrian student union (ÖH)
- Student services for doctoral/PhD students
- Welcome services for international students, staff, and guests
- Campus and university hospital tour
- Get-together with our exchange students
A special highlight: one guest from the surgical field also spent 3 additional days in the Department of General, Visceral and Transplant Surgery, gaining insights into techniques in general and laparoscopic surgery (including hernia repairs and colectomies).
Thank you for the inspiring exchange – we look forward to further collaboration!
