Or, if you are unable to take 60 ECTS, there is an alternative way to gain the credits for this module:
- A reflective learning diary recording the student’s experiences of the period abroad and a 3,000-word written summary related to the stated outcomes of the module. The summary should contain contextual information on the host institution, the cultural and academic environments, the skills developed and how they relate to personal, academic and career development.
