Inhoud

The Project in year 4 is the last project module offered by the Bachelor of International Communication before the Graduation Assignment. The assignments stem from the societal challenges in energy transition towards a sustainable future in Europe.

In all cases, students work in project groups in close cooperation with professional clients. The assignments are based on current challenges and/or opportunities experienced by the clients, and require a proactive mind-set. In addition to carrying out research with the purpose of developing strategic solutions for communication issues that the organisation is facing, students are also challenged to bridge multiple interests and to become acquainted with new learning contexts and roles.

ICC: Students, in their communication consulting role, will explore determinant cultural aspects linked to the client assignment (project) and test their own assumptions and biases while training specific intercultural competences: how to use frameworks for cross-cultural research, how to deal with resistance in assignment negotiations, how to persuade during client presentations, how to communicate (written and oral) with international clients and stakeholders.
