Our exchange programmes with Spain (Madrid and Seville) and Colombia (Bogotá and Pereira) rely on several prestigious university partners that offer our students highly attractive mobility opportunities.
Carmen Acosta, the School’s representative for Spanish-speaking countries, has just completed two missions that served to review the exchanges, renew partnership agreements, and meet our students currently on academic semesters.
Our academic exchanges in Colombia have historically relied on the University of Los Andes in Bogotá, UT Pereira, or the Industrial University of Santander (IMT agreement).
This year, two students from the Technological University of Pereira are being hosted within the ICM curriculum. Carmen Acosta, while on a mission in Colombia, met her counterpart as part of our partnership. This destination, open to our engineering students, is an excellent university in a Colombian region with many attractions for our students.
She also visited the University of Los Andes (cover photo) to monitor pedagogical and academic relations, particularly our double-degree agreement.
In mid-December, Carmen Acosta also carried out a mission to Spain to visit four of our long-standing partners: ETSII Madrid (meeting with Emilio Migoya, Head of International Relations), ETSIME (School of Mines), Carlos III University in Madrid, and ETSI Seville.
She also met three of the four students completing an academic stay with these partners during their 7th semester: Antoine Douin, Hugo Denis, and Cyprien Bertran de Balanda.
These visits are part of the renewal of existing framework and double-degree agreements, while updating their content and including the Master’s degree offering.
They made it possible to review the exchanges and provide avenues for development to increase mobility flows.
