The fact that international mobility offers a fundamental added value, both for students and teachers, is absolutely clear. A well-framed study / internship or teaching period abroad gives you a privileged view of the educational affairs or field of work in the country in question. It sharpens your international and intercultural skills, including your fluency in foreign languages. The international perspective opens up new doors within your field.

Howest graduates testify to the fact that the opportunities on the labor market increase for those who have learning or work experience abroad. Employers seek the typical qualities of our internationally mobile students: flexibility, entrepreneurship, self-reliance, language skills and more. Furthermore, international experience broadens your outlook, creates new friendships, teaches you how to work in diverse settings and promotes independence and confidence.
