Candida MacKenzie, international coordinator at 果冻传媒 Business School, tell us about the conference
- The Business School and 果冻传媒's international office participated in the conference together with 7,300 representatives from universities around the world.
- This year's theme was "En Route". From Sweden, nine other universities from all over the country participated to market Sweden as a study destination. During the conference, we met current and potential new exchange partner universities, highlighted the opportunities for students who will study at 果冻传媒 and the new exchange semester in English that the Business School recently presented.
What is the significance of our participation in the EAIE conference?
- Education is a path to freedom, knowledge and information, and as an educational institution, we at the Business School always strive to help our students become responsible professionals with global competence. By participating in the EAIE conference, we can create opportunities for our students to gain global experiences to prepare them to be attractive employees and have globally relevant skills.
- By meeting representatives in person, we build stronger contacts and collaborations for students. For example, we are now starting an agreement with Grenoble Ecole de Management, an accredited world-leading business school in France, and secured extra places for our students to study abroad. The conference's opening session with Elisabeth Moreno, former French minister responsible for equality, diversity and equal opportunities, reminded everyone of the importance of internationalization in education
- It crosses borders, unites people and we learn to work together beyond our differences, it is not an option, it is a necessity to solve the world's problems together, said Elisabeth Moreno.
