The Erasmus program, one of the most significant projects in the field of education within the European Union programs, provides 180,000 students each year with the opportunity to complete part of their university education or internships abroad.
Research shows that international experience contributes significantly to students not only academically but also in terms of intercultural competence, foreign language skills, and personal development. Moreover, having international experience on a résumé is an important advantage that increases graduates' chances of finding a job.
F. Gontek, an Erasmus student at Turkish-German University (TAU), shared their educational experience at TAU in an interview with DAAD representative Johannes Göbel. Gontek described TAU as an exceptional university and spoke highly of the professors they studied with.
