ESPANT

Aims and Objectives

The main goal of this project is to develop an international curriculum which is as flexible and dynamic as possible. The latter is necessary to make it possible for students and teaching staff from different countries around Europe to participate in the ESPANT programme. The curriculum allows students to develop the necessary competences for the labour market, which enhances their employability. This is guaranteed by working together with experts from large industrial partners who help defining the competences which should be addressed during the study programme. Besides that, a thorough practical training with an operational background in mind is necessary.

It is the goal of the consortium to integrate different state-of-the-art networking technologies using real world case studies and practical training, which are executed in a real and professional environment. In this way the students sharpen their competences to cover difficulties which are encountered in real world networking configurations.

By making students more mobile they learn the large opportunities that the European Union brings along. The European Study Programme for Advanced Networking Technologies is built around six units, which the students have to complete to finish the study programme successfully. This brings students at a short period in contact with different social and cultural environments. Also the group they work in changes within each module, which sharpens their interpersonal and intercultural competences.
