CIC

Component B

Component B: international experience

We strongly encourage all participating students to improve their intercultural competence abroad, e.g. by doing an international semester. You can get credit for component B by studying abroad, e.g. with the ERASMUS program or direct exchange programs. We also accept international internships (minimum duration: two months) for the CIC. International students can get credit by studying at University of Hamburg.

Duration: your stay abroad must comprise at least two months.
Report: upon your return, you must submit a report (three pages min), i.e. a self-reflective analysis of your intercultural experience, substantiating theory with practical examples. (Please note: This is not the Erasmus report!)  Please follow the guidelines for the report. Students
