Blended Intensive Programmes

New from 2022 is that students of Fontys can participate in short-term blended programmes (BIP) where at least 3 countries are involved. Students work in groups, both virtually (from home) and on location in one of the three countries.

The travelling group is usually joined by Fontys teachers and the programme is prepared by the 3 countries involved. The stay abroad is min. 5 days and max. 30 days and for those days you can get an Erasmus+ scholarship.

For this module you aim to get at least 3 ECTS. The selection is done by the organising teachers of your institute.
