Op reis dankzij het GUF

Last year when I formally completed my Bachelor in International Relations and International Organizations at the RUG, I realized that I was not ready to move on yet without an abroad experience and decided to extend my studies with a placement.

Last autumn, I had the opportunity to participate in the Double Degree Program with Lund University. Specifically, I took part in their Finance program, by taking four courses in the first semester of the academic year.

Al als klein kind vertelde ik mensen verhalen over hoe ik dokter ging worden om in Afrika mensen te helpen, en dit jaar werd die droom eindelijk waarheid.

Begin september ben ik in mijn eentje vertrokken naar Oeganda om hier gedurende 8 weken een sociaal coschap in de tropen te gaan doen.

Research visit – Kiessling lab – Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) November 2021 - April 2022Over the past six months, I have grown a lot, both on scientifically and personally.

I am Rocco Losasso, an Italian citizen and a student of the Erasmus Mundus Master of Arts Euroculture – society, politics and culture in a global context at the university of Groningen.

In the application phase for my Master’s placement as part of my programme Film and Contemporary Audiovisual Media, I reached out to several companies and institutions in Europe including film festivals and media production companies.

I started my study exchange at the University of Uppsala, Sweden, at the start of February 2022 as a part of my Euroculture Master’s degree.

My master programme “Euroculture: Society, Politics and Culture in a Global Context” is an Erasmus Mundus Joint Degree.

In January 2022 I started as a research intern at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Umeå, Sweden.
