Student Stories

It was my second Erasmus+ mobility experience, but my first internship in Istanbul. I met wonderful people with whom I will stay in touch even after returning home. I improved my English skills thanks to working in the Erasmus Office.

During my internship, I learned a lot and had the opportunity to discover the Erasmus recruitment process from the inside. I conducted interviews with people from different countries, which helped me become more confident and improve my communication skills.

After work and during weekends, I explored Istanbul, visited important landmarks and museums, and often travelled by ferry, which is unfortunately not available in my hometown. I also visited the islands surrounding Istanbul and travelled to Bursa. I enjoyed Turkish tea, delicious sweets and baklava.

It was an unforgettable experience, and I am very happy that I decided to take part in it.

It was one of the best adventures of my life. Porto quickly became my second home, a place full of amazing people, unforgettable moments and inspiring experiences.

Erasmus+ gave me the opportunity to discover a new culture, improve my language skills and step out of my comfort zone. During my stay in Portugal, I had the chance to travel, meet people from all over the world and create memories that I will cherish forever.

This experience helped me become more independent, open-minded and confident. Porto will always have a special place in my heart, and Erasmus+ will remain one of the most important experiences of my life.

My Erasmus+ experience in Huelva was the best time of my life! Since it is a small town, not many people speak English, which encouraged me to learn Spanish and become more familiar with the local culture.

During my stay, I had the opportunity to experience Spanish traditions, celebrate local holidays and discover the unique atmosphere of the Andalusian region. Living abroad helped me become more independent, open-minded and confident in communicating with people from different backgrounds.

Erasmus+ gave me unforgettable memories, wonderful friendships and experiences that I will always carry with me.

I am very happy with my Erasmus+ experience in Porto. I feel truly grateful for the opportunity to be here. The university is wonderful, the atmosphere is inspiring, and every day I gain new knowledge and valuable experiences.

Portugal is a beautiful country, and its people are incredibly friendly, open and welcoming. Living abroad has allowed me to discover a new culture, meet inspiring people and develop both personally and academically.

I would like to sincerely thank my university for giving me the opportunity to participate in this mobility. It is a unique experience that I truly appreciate and will always remember.

Taking part in the Erasmus+ programme in Santarém, Portugal, thanks to WSB University, was an extraordinary experience for me. I fell in love with Portugal, especially its beautiful beaches and the kindness and hospitality of its people.

The warmer climate, compared to what I am used to, made exploring the country even more enjoyable. Whether discovering coastal towns or getting to know the local community, every day brought new and exciting experiences.

I am extremely grateful to WSB University for giving me the opportunity to participate in this mobility. Thanks to Erasmus+, I was able not only to develop academically but also to immerse myself in a fascinating culture that I truly came to love.

My Erasmus+ traineeship was an extraordinary opportunity to combine my academic and professional goals with practical experience in the field of cloud computing. Working in the heart of Madrid, with an office located near Plaza del Sol, allowed me to develop professionally while discovering Spanish culture every day.

I was impressed by the Spanish approach to work-life balance. Taking part in sporting events, football matches and local festivals, as well as receiving kindness and support from my colleagues, helped me feel comfortable from the very beginning.

Thanks to this experience, I was able to use the knowledge and skills gained during my studies at WSB University and continue developing professionally as a software engineer, while building valuable relationships with people from different backgrounds.

I would recommend an Erasmus+ traineeship to every student considering this opportunity. Even a three-month stay can open the door to many new experiences and make you wish to stay much longer.

Living in Madrid was one of the greatest advantages of this journey. Every morning, I deliberately chose a slightly longer route to work to enjoy the charming streets around Plaza del Sol. The city's rich history, unique atmosphere and almost constant sunshine make every day an opportunity to discover something new. This experience will stay in my memory for a long time.

During my stay at HVL in Bergen, I felt very well supported. I could count on both the support of the lecturers and easy access to the university administration whenever I needed assistance.

HVL is a modern university with a spacious and well-equipped library, which is open seven days a week. The campus also offers recreational areas, sports facilities, cafés and an auditorium that also serves as a concert hall.

Students have access to many study rooms that can be reserved both for individual work and for meetings or group study. The well-organised facilities and supportive environment made my Erasmus+ experience comfortable and enjoyable.

My stay in Bifröst, Iceland, funded through the Education Programme, was one of the most exciting adventures of my life. Bifröst University offers an interesting contrast to the educational systems we are used to.

Bifröst is located far from the hustle and bustle of the city, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes of hills, volcanoes and waterfalls. During the long winter nights, the sky is often illuminated by the Northern Lights, creating an unforgettable atmosphere.

Icelanders are relaxed, open and friendly, and Icelandic hot dogs really are the best in the world. This experience allowed me to discover a unique country, experience a different approach to education and create memories that I will cherish for a long time.

I am very grateful to WSB University and all the university staff, especially Ms Valeria, who supported us and provided assistance both before our departure and during our stay in Belgium as part of the Erasmus+ programme.

Taking part in the Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) in Belgium was an extraordinary experience. We met many wonderful people, and many of the connections we made developed into genuine friendships.

I would highly recommend every student to take advantage of the opportunity to go abroad through the Erasmus+ programme at WSB University. It is a unique opportunity to gain valuable experience, discover new cultures and meet new people, while developing both professionally and personally.

I would like to share two quotes that perfectly capture the essence of the Erasmus+ programme:

“Not all classrooms have four walls.” – Unknown

“The most effective way to change our perception of the world is to study abroad.” – Chantal Mitchell

Last semester, I had the opportunity to take part in an Erasmus+ exchange at BTU University in Germany. Thanks to the student ID issued by the university, I was able to use public transport free of charge, including buses, trams and trains throughout the state of Brandenburg. This also allowed me to visit well-known cities such as Berlin and Dresden.

Of course, every stay abroad comes with both challenges and wonderful moments. However, after completing an exchange, you return as a different person – enriched by new friendships, unforgettable travel memories and valuable experiences of discovering different cultures.

I would like to sincerely thank WSB University for giving me the opportunity to take part in this extraordinary adventure. This experience will stay with me for a long time.

My Erasmus+ internship at KodEdu was one of the most valuable experiences I gained during my studies. It gave me the opportunity not only to experience a professional working environment, but also to significantly develop my technical skills.

During my internship, I improved my programming skills by learning and working with C#, the .NET platform, data structures and algorithms. This experience was particularly valuable because I completed my internship during the final year of my studies, which helped me better prepare for starting my professional career.

I wholeheartedly encourage every student to take advantage of the opportunity to go abroad through the Erasmus+ programme. It is an extraordinary adventure that allows you to gain knowledge, experience and confidence, while also meeting new people and discovering a different culture.

Once Erasmus, always Erasmus!

I am absolutely delighted with my Erasmus+ experience in Vigo, Spain. Breathtaking nature, beautiful landscapes, the warm Spanish climate, and friendly, open-minded people are all waiting for students who decide to study in this wonderful city.

I am extremely grateful to the International Relations Office of WSB University, all its staff members and coordinators for their support and for giving me the opportunity to discover new places around the world, make friends with people from different countries, explore other cultures and gain incredibly valuable life experience.

I wholeheartedly recommend taking part in the Erasmus+ exchange programme to every student. It truly is an unforgettable adventure that stays with you for a lifetime!
