During the Wintersemester 2020/21 - taking advantage of the virtuality imposed through the COVID-19 pandemic - together with Prof. Bönte of the Bergische Universität Wuppertal (Germany), we organized a joined research seminar for undergraduate and Master students on the topic The effects of COVID-19 on business activities in Colombia and Germany. 16 students from the Universidad del Norte developed in intercultural teams with students from BUW seminar papers on selected topics focusing on the general thematic.
Due to its great success, the initiative is continuing. During the SS 2021, Alina Wilke del BUW is leading a joint research seminar Latin America and Asia as Economic Partners of the European Union: Trade and Foreign Direct Investment, with guest lectures by Jahir Lombana, Andrés Vargas and Juan Perilla, all professors at the Universidad del Norte. Again, 14 students from the Universidad del Norte are taking part in the seminar.
In 2019, a group of students and I applied to a funding program by the DAAD to (partially) finance a study trip of 12 days to Germany. From June 4th through June 14th, 12 students of the International Business Program visited 6 universities in Germany, learned about the German culture, opportunities to study in German and, of course, how to do business in Germany.
Since 2020, the Hochschule Fulda generously finances 2 students from Universidad del Norte to take part in their Summer / Winter School.
