TERMINÉ
The International Campus brings together all UVic-UCC international activities: mobility programs and student and staff exchanges, international double degree programs, master degrees and postgraduate courses, Study Abroad programs, research activities, continuing education courses and international cooperation projects. The International Campus is a founding member of the project called Horizon Asia, whose goal is to boost relations with Asia.
The size of both the university and its work teams have contributed to the strengthening of an innovative and progressively more internationalized pedagogical model. The UVic-UCC considers multilingual training a key aspect for the increased mobility of university students and staff. With approximately 5000 students enrolled in official studies (degree, master and doctorate) and more than 6000 students of continuing education, small class groups, individual attention allow us to develop comprehensive education and achieve a high index of job placements.
Our international team, based both in Vic and Barcelona, are led by the Rector, the Vice-Rector for International Relations and Continuing Education and the International Relations Commission. The International Relations Office and the Career Service, both based in Vic, are responsible for the coordination, the promotion and providing the necessary information to the University community.
The UVic-UCC has collaboration exchange agreements with universities and institutions in more than forty countries, in Europe, Africa, North and South America and Asia, participating also in several international networks. We are working so that mid-term we can combine other international projects linked to this KA1 in Europe with a wider geographical area.
The University of Vic – Central University of Catalonia acts to guarantee that all agents and services involved in the internationalization of the institution work smoothly together on the planning of strategies for the international projection of the whole institution as stablished in the Action Plans in the Strategic Plan of the University. The Strategic Plan, and in particular the action Plan sets forth the objectives and the specific actions for mobility concerning both, the University as a whole and the faculties/centers.
In general terms the University of Vic – Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC) prioritizes actions ad projects of international scope being Erasmus + programs a main driving force for internationalization. Within this general framework and as an individual HEI in the project, action key 1 of the project (KA1 mobility) focused on students and staff mobility brings together in our institution a relevant percentage of mobility participants, and allows us to detect a considerable growth in international traineeship applications (SMT). Thus, we can observe that in the two last academic courses mobility for studies tends to remain stable, whereas the number of students who have enrolled in an international traineeship within the framework of the Erasmus program has shown a significant growth. Most of the participants are undergraduate students interested in getting in touch with a new setting, both from a sociocultural and economic perspective, with the hope that an international traineeship will allow them to benefit from the knowledge they can acquire and have an easier access to a job placement, either in our country or in the host country.
The international mobility, and in particular the mobility developed within the framework of the Erasmus program, have contributed in a relevant way to the process of transformation of our University towards an ongoing internationalization of the institution as a whole. In our model of transversal and inclusive internationalization, which tries to favor the engagement and the commitment of all members of the university community, the Erasmus program makes it easier for us to put forth our objectives since it enables the access both of students and staff members, thus strengthening of this transversal nature of our model. We have no doubt that our participation in the Erasmus program is and will be a keystone for the contribution to a more qualified university community to face up to the challenges of a growing requirement for the internationalization of higher education and of a more demanding labor market.
