Many students and graduates aspire to an internship or career in the field of the European Union. However, it is not always easy to find one’s way around and find the right path to one’s goal.
To learn more about working in these areas and the opportunities available for students, graduates, and young professionals, the fourth series of monthly online meetings dedicated to various professional profiles will continue in April. Guests will share insight into their daily work, the educational and professional journey that led them to Brussels, and offer first-hand advice.

Our guests for the last appointment of the semester are:
