Project work possibilites - ReWo project - potential to visit Portugal and Norway
Dear students,
At the Faculty of tourism, University of Maribor, we are participating in an Erasmus+ project called "From research to working life: students as knowledge brokers for entrepreneurial development (ReWo)". As you can infer from the title, the project focuses on the transfer of knowledge generated by students into real-life situations. Within the project, we are developing educational content that will be specifically designed for students. This is where we need your help and offer you an opportunity for active participation.
What is it about?
In two different phases, each of the partner faculties in the project (Finland, Norway, Portugal, and Slovenia) will provide 4 students who will participate in an intensive week of workshops. During these workshops, we will test teaching methods and content for the purposes of the project.
When and where?
The first intensive week will take place between November 5th and November 11th, 2023, in Estoril (Lisbon), Portugal. The second intensive week will be at the end of August or the beginning of September 2024 in Stavanger, Norway.
How much will it cost me?
In both cases, transportation and accommodation expenses will be covered by the project funds. Please note that flight tickets and accommodation arrangements will be organized collectively for all participants from the faculty. Therefore, your participation mainly requires your time. However, you will likely need to spend some of your own money for independent exploration of these fantastic cities.
What are the participation requirements?
- The most important and crucial condition is that the individual participates in both meetings. By applying, you commit to participating in both Estoril and Stavanger.
- Student status.
- You must have a high level of motivation and a desire to participate in the project.
- All project phases will be conducted in English. Proficiency in both written and spoken English is mandatory.
