MAKING UNIVERSITIES READY FOR SOCIAL INCLUSION AND CULTURAL DIVERSITY

About the Project

With the significant increase of enrolled international students, the role of university-employees becomes more important at all levels of the academic system. The project assumes that the integration of refugees, migrants and international students into the higher education system promises great opportunities, as it also enforces the internationalization of higher education and the promotion of positive developments in universities. (Borgwardt 2016). The MUSIC-project (“Making Universities Ready for Social Inclusion and Cultural Diversity”) develops a comprehensive program for employees at European universities to break down barriers for international students, namely migrants and refugees, in the use of educational and administrative services.
