For the Spatial Development and Public Administration programmes at Saxion University of Applied Sciences, internationalisation is no longer an add-on, but an integral part of the curriculum. Students learn to work with different perspectives – essential for future spatial planners, urban designers, sustainability advisers and public administration professionals. Inge Gijsbers, Senior Lecturer in Urban Studies and Internationalisation Coordinator, shares how Saxion approaches this in practice and the insights it provides for other programmes.
