Meet Rose Rorije - career advisor and internship coordinator - and together with Atse Fokkens she takes care of the career service for International Studies. That means, she gives you a hand in checking what your options are right now when looking for an interesting job after graduation. She can also help you with searching and applying for an internship. And how to arrange it according to the faculty’s procedure. In this mini interview she'll tell a bit more about herself:
The Programme Board International Studies is a very important body, as it is responsible for the teaching programme, i.e. for designing and implementing the teaching programme. The Board comprises of: the Programme Chair (Giles Scott-Smith), the Programme Manager (Jaap Kamphuis), and two students from International Studies. Who are this year’s students of the Programme Board, taking care of your wishes? They will introduce themselves here.
Your thesis. It’s the final achievement crowning your studies. It asks for hard work, patience, research and persistence. Not only from the students, but also from the thesis seminar supervisors and, maybe you weren’t aware: the Thesis Seminars Coordinator. At International Studies, we’re very lucky to have a dedicated Thesis Seminars Coordinator – devoted to smoothly coordinating the process of planning and organization.
In the new rubric, Highlighted Publication, we share an article published by of our International Studies colleagues.
Under this rubric we want to report on our tutors’ international and intercultural experience. Leiden University strives to enable students to develop so called “21st century skills” which are defined as “the ability to work in teams, international and intercultural skills, entrepreneurship and leadership qualities and digital competences”.
International Studies has quite some new tutors for this year! We’re very happy to welcome them in our team. Want to find out who they are? Below, they introduce themselves and share what challenges they think will be coming up. But of course, they already have plans for the solutions as well…
As this world map reveals, our first-year students represent a whole bunch of different backgrounds and identities. Some of them currently living in The Hague, some of them elsewhere in the Netherlands or abroad. How can we try and make use of the situation and create a community…online?
