"During my internship, I worked on the research project "South Korea Stands With Ukraine". The research topic was extremely interesting to me, and besides, it plays a very important role in our time. The internship took place at Thompson Rivers University - a university that fascinates with its modernity and beauty at first glance. While working on the research, I had the opportunity to develop my professional skills, improve my English, meet wonderful people from different parts of the world, and travel to the most beautiful places in British Columbia. It was a unique experience that taught me a lot. Canada is an incredibly beautiful country with magical nature and people. Therefore, I gladly recommend everyone to try their hand and take part in the program, which will definitely change you and your professional life!" - said Kateryna.

Students had the opportunity to improve their level of German by studying it with native speakers, plan their semester independently, attend various courses and webinars on campus, study interesting subjects based on their own interests, get acquainted with Austrian culture, with students from other countries of the world, and expand their outlook!
