This is the context where IST will organise the 10th edition of the International Day. This popular event has almost 50 foreign Higher Education Institutions from more than 25 different countries. This notable exposure will be crucial to broaden the horizons and intensify international student mobility perspectives in the near future. Mission Provide a forum for faculty, researchers and students to directly contact some of IST s international partners. Disseminate mobility opportunities for students: international academic mobility programmes, Double Degrees, joint Masters and Doctoral programmes, internships, etc. Create a community environment that will stimulate the exchange of ideas between the international partners and the IST community as well as opportunities for new partnerships and projects worldwide. Promote IST s culture of internationalisation. Ambiance The International Day 2017 aims to virtually transport the IST community abroad to different places and countries worldwide by providing the participants with information about the endless possibilities of student mobility in different Universities and programmes, including opportunities for the entire academic community.
