The registration form is available on the link.There are limited places available in the current academic year (2024/25). The certificate does not directly provide ECTS. Students can apply for partial recognition of obligations in any of the courses within their study program at their member institution according to the procedure at the member institution where they are enrolled in the study program.
Activities
To complete the EUCI, you should have participated in a range of international activities. As a guideline, we recommend at least 30 hours of activities, but you should discuss this with the programme convenor to find the right approach for you.
Eligible activities might include:
- Opportunities to study or work abroad
- Study programmes with an international focus
- One-off events or workshops you attended in another country
- Language-learning experiences
- International activities you engaged in during your time at school, or on a previous degree programme
Please contact the programme convenor, Lewis Beer lewis.beer@warwick.ac.uk, to discuss the eligibility of your international activities.
Seminars
To support your reflective practice and your compilation of a reflective portfolio, you will be able to attend four online 90-minute seminars in which you can discuss your international experiences with your fellow students, and with the guidance of EUTOPIA tutors.
These virtual seminars will run at the following times:
- Cohort 1: 25 April – 16 May (one seminar per week: Fridays at 17:00-18:30 CET; deadline to attend this cohort is April 11.
- Cohort 2: 20 May – 13 June (one seminar per week, choose between the following times: Tuesdays at 11:00-12:30 or Fridays at 17:00-18:30)
Reflective Portfolio
To demonstrate your international learning, you will compile a reflective portfolio which can include essays, artworks, and multimedia elements such as a video diary. It is expected that your portfolio will amount to roughly 2000 words (or equivalent).
In your portfolio, you will be expected to fulfil the following two learning outcomes:
- Reflective: reflect deeply on the issues discussed, measuring personal development and considering multiple points of view
- Intercultural: demonstrate awareness of relations between different national cultures and languages, and the ability to reflect on these
To get a better overview of what the portfolio should look like, you can consult portfolios of previous students on the link.
Please note that the EUCI is facilitated through a collaboration between all the universities of the EUTOPIA Alliance. The application form is located on the University of Warwick website, but expressions of interest may be reviewed by members of staff from any of the EUTOPIA partners.
If your portfolio achieves a 'pass' grade, you will be awarded the EUTOPIA Certificate of Internationalisation.
