International Affairs

 

My dedication to the field of international affairs transcends borders. I actively promote cooperation and cultural immersion to yield personal and professional growth. I view this transformative challenge as a way to equip students and faculty with essential tools to thrive in an interconnected world. My efforts materialize through meticulously designed programs within the successful Erasmus+ framework. With a focus on inclusion, we ensure that every mobility experience becomes a journey of self-discovery and intellectual expansion. We forge strategic alliances with universities across Europe and Asia, weaving a global network that fosters dynamic and fruitful reciprocity.

I lead the planning and execution of these initiatives, advancing institutional objectives with precision and dedication. Through a variety of proposals, I secure tangible outcomes. Regular evaluations reinforce our commitment to excellence, maintaining a continuous cycle of growth and improvement. Since my designation, the Coordination Office has partaken a progression that has doubled previous achievements. However, our endeavors extend beyond administrative management. We elevate our reputation through diverse and impactful initiatives.

We provide paid internships at the European Union Intellectual Property Office in Alicante and the European Patent Office in Munich. Our scheme, “The Art of Protection,” stimulates the monetization of craftsmanship in developing countries, creating sustainable opportunities. Furthermore, we participate in the Blueprint Alliance, mobilizing public and private actors to prioritize education in textiles, clothing, leather, and footwear. Additionally, we collaborate with southern Italy on “Performing Landscapes for Ghosts,” a project that explores the intersection of visual arts, music, cinema, and theater, highlighting historical and artistic heritage. These opportunities not only cultivate practical skills but also transform our students into key players in highly competitive global markets.

Mindful of contemporary challenges, I implement adaptive approaches to optimize resources and amplify the impact of our actions. Participant feedback underscores the transformative power of these adventures. Indeed, surveys reveal outstanding satisfaction rates, solidifying internationalization as a cornerstone of our School. Thus, I reaffirm the commitment to expand our presence and enhance our outreach. We work to foster a collaborative environment that drives innovation, diversity, and a forward-thinking academic community ready to tackle future challenges.
