Samantha
Samantha is in her second year of the master's programme in Industrial Engineering and Management. In the academic year 2023/2024, she was an exchange student twice – first at Pontificia UCA in Argentina and the following semester at UPV Valencia in Spain. Previously, she also did her Bachelor's thesis as a field study in Mexico.
What are the best tips you would give to other students thinking about studying abroad?
The most important tip I can give anyone considering going on exchange is to dare, dare, dare. Don't overthink your choice of destination or your ability. Get out into deep water and learn to swim. This is when you will gather experiences you never thought of and open your mind to many new places, traditions, dishes and maybe an even better version of yourself.
