International experience looks great on your resume. Tio gives you many opportunities to go abroad during your studies.

All Tio students gain experience abroad. For example by doing an international internship, a graduation project, a study period abroad or an international study trip.

Usually, you live on campus and study in an international class with different nationalities.

If you are enrolled in the four-year bachelor programme, you can opt for the Grand international tour. You then exchange your second-year internship for an extra semester of studying abroad and you study for a year at two different Tio partner universities.

Excursions and activities
Every year, you can participate in various study trips and international excursions, both within and outside the study programme, and join in the activities of student association Cognatio. These include the winter sports trip and the introduction week in the Ardennes.

Erasmus+ scholarship
The Erasmus+ grant is intended for students in higher education who want to study or do an internship in Europe. Whether a student can receive a grant depends on the grant amount made available to Tio. Your study coach can give you more information.

Practical matters
If you are going to do an internship abroad or going to study abroad, your study coach will be happy to help you plan and prepare. Costs should also be considered as they are not included in the tuition fee. These include costs for a plane ticket, accommodation, household expenses and a visa (if you need one). If you receive Dutch student finance, you will be eligible for an allowance for the period your student travel product was inactive during your international internship and study abroad. You may also be eligible for an Erasmus+ grant.
