University of Incheon

From April to the end of May 2013, on Wednesday afternoon, this course organizes presentations with various representatives of the EU established in Korea. The purpose is to gather various expatriates to discover the potential of European companies and institutions, their presence here in Korea, and the good and bad of being a European in Korea.

Furthermore, our students are interested to learn what requirements and skills are needed by European companies to get an internship or a job.

Thus during three month, guided by motivated students, different companies and institutions are invited to visit us and briefly introduce themselves, respond to the students questions, and have an enjoyable experience presenting their homeland and their objectives in Asia.

The atmosphere of these presentations is meant to be very pleasant for all of us, and to celebrate the participation of our guests properly they are invited to enjoy a dinner afterwards at the University restaurant.

Our students are studying German or French and European Trade. English skills are required. Most of them are in the 3rd or 4th academic year. Also our international exchange students can participate in this class.

In order to graduate, each group of students supervising one of the eight delegations will have to make a presentation and remarks on the website of this class:  www.europetrade.blogspot.kr

Classes always on Wednesday, 3 – 6 pm

Room 502, College of Humanities, Bldg. 15
