The strategic partnership with ֦ƵState University, Long Beach, further strengthened with €215,290 in new DAAD grants. The funding will go to student and faculty exchange programs in Media Technology, Business, and Social Work departments
HAW Hamburg and ֦ƵState University, Long Beach (֦Ƶ)Short programmes are becoming increasingly popular with US students, as they find semester-long programmes difficult to incorporate into their studies and personal situation. Family and work commitments or personal budgets often mean that students feel they cannot be abroad for a longer period of time. In 2020 student exchange became even more difficult with the corona pandemic stopping travel to and from the US.
Every year since 1996 and ֦Ƶ business students get together in May in Hamburg for the German-American International Business Workshop. This year they are not going to let the unprecedented circumstances beat them. They will get together in a virtual workshop to work on research projects on the topic “Disrupt or be disrupted”.
