About

International experience, intercultural skills and the ability to work in innovative environments have become fundamental to increase the competitiveness of IST’s future Engineers and Architects. In this context, IST will organise the 12th edition of the International Day. This popular event has several Higher Education Institutions confirmed, from many different countries. This notable exposure will be crucial to broaden the horizons and intensify international student mobility perspectives in the near future.

IST International Day has 5 main goals:

Disseminate mobility opportunities for students: international academic mobility programmes, Double Degrees, joint Masters and Doctoral programmes, internships, etc.;
Provide a forum for faculty, researchers and students to directly contact some of IST’s international partners;
Promote IST’s culture of internationalization;
Create a unique environment of best practices and cooperation between national and international partners, professionals, teachers, technicians, administrative staff and students and will enable deep reflection about what we can all do individually to boost internationalization at IST;
Create a community environment that will stimulate the exchange of ideas between the international partners and the IST community within a unique space with a large set of activities, contests and prizes.
