Applications for the UM International Staff Week 2019 are now open
Maastricht University (UM) proudly presents its first International Staff Week (ISW) which will take place between 19-21 June 2019. This ISW is aimed at international colleagues from UM partner universities across the world.
The UM International Staff Week will be open to colleagues from partner institutions across the world who will participate in several presentations and workshops about current developments and strategic issues that most employees working at a higher education institution experience. This includes sessions about how we at Maastricht deal with topics such as alumni relations, diversity, educational innovation, internationalisation and employability.
As the capacity of the ISW is limited, a maximum of two representatives per partner university can attend. The costs for participation are 225 Euro, with a 25% waiver for partners from the two UM strategic networks YERUN and WUN.
Registrations for the ISW are open between 15 February 2019 and 15 May 2019 through the ISW website. UM colleagues are invited to share the information about the ISW with their international counterparts.
Questions about the International Staff Week can be addressed to: isw@maastrichtuniversity.nl
