WEST UKRAINIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY

 As part of the Erasmus+ international academic mobility programme, Liubov Tymura, a third-year student majoring in Financial Management at the Faculty of Finance and Accounting of the West Ukrainian National University, is taking a semester-long course at Inholland University of Applied Sciences (Kingdom of the Netherlands).

During a faculty meeting, the student happily shared her impressions of her studies and noted that: "The first weeks at Inholland University of Applied Sciences were a combination of intensive study and valuable cultural experience. Classes involve active student participation in discussions, group projects and practical tasks. An important factor that positively influences the learning process is the openness of teachers to dialogue and their focus on developing critical thinking in students."

Liubov Tymura also noted that "an extremely important aspect of the programme is its cultural dimension, as it is this that builds intercultural competence. Exposure to an international educational environment allows students not only to gain professional knowledge, but also to become actively involved in social, cultural and communication activities. All learners have the opportunity to participate in student initiatives, attend cultural events, learn about the historical and cultural heritage of the Netherlands, and exchange experiences with representatives of different national communities."

At the end of the meeting, Liubov Tymura emphasised that she was very grateful to the West Ukrainian National University for the opportunity to participate in the Erasmus+ programme, which opened up new horizons for professional and personal development and allowed her to experience the benefits of the international educational space. She also expressed her sincere gratitude to the teaching staff of the Department of Financial Technologies and Banking Business for their support: "I am confident that the experience I have gained will become a solid foundation for my future career and will contribute to the worthy representation of our university at the international level, and this semester will forever remain in my memory as a period of inspiration, discoveries and new opportunities," said Liuba.
