Virtual Mobility - Digital Internationalisation at H-BRS
Digital Internationalisation strengthens virtual mobility by expanding digital courses offered in English with international partners.
Digital internationalisation plays a significant role in the internationalisation strategy of H-BRS. Digital tools allow cross-border distances to be overcome without leaving the campus (virtual mobility). In University Development Plan 3 (2021-2025), we have made a plan to develop and test digital formats and suitable methods in teaching, research, transfer and administration. Thus, we will enable more and more university members to cooperate across borders and develop international competences.
Less than 10% of the students at H-BRS take advantage of the outgoing offers of our university, whereas 90% of our students cannot go abroad, due to either financial or health related reasons or family commitments. Digital internationalisation offers students to gain international and intercultural skills while staying at home. In addition, participating in digital international formats can break down mobility barriers and arouse interest in international exchange programmes.
The Team Digital Internationalisation offers a comprehensive range of digital professional courses in English that allow our students to gain international experience, practice digital collaboration and earn ECTS. In these courses, H-BRS students learn together with students from partner universities and other foreign students without leaving their home workplace (virtual mobility).
With its digital courses, the Digital International General Studies (DISG), offers students the opportunity to attend interdisciplinary courses in different disciplines at Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg as well as at international partner universities. In addition, the project Digital Internationalisation of the Departments (DID), also creates an extensive range of digital subject-specific courses in English that enable our students to gain international experience, practise digital collaboration skills and acquire ECTS.
The following staff will advise you about the virtual mobility programmes offered by each department or the campus-wide DISG programmes.
Digital International General Studies (DISG)
With its digital courses, the Digital International General Studies (DISG) offers the opportunity to attend interdisciplinary courses from different disciplines and thus further develop international and intercultural skills. In addition to courses at the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences, courses from international partner universities are also offered.
The courses are generally open to all interested students from Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg and our partner universities. In the descriptions you will find further information about possible admission requirements, registration, assessment as well as the possible receipt of ECTS.
