TU alum Kirsten just got back from the USA and wants to share her experiences with us! During her studies she spent one semester studying at a partner university in Georgia, and after her studies she spent two more years teaching at a school in New Mexico. Kirsten will share these experiences with us especially in regards to her visual impairment and hopes to encourage others to do the same and dare to go abroad.

The International Office will also present the special funding available through the PROMOS and Erasmus+ scholarship programs for students with a disability or chronic illness.
