Abstract(s)
O presente relatório de estágio serve como testemunho do trabalho que desenvolvi num período total de 7 meses no Gabinete de Relações Internacionais do ISCAP, cujo qual cria eventos de caráter internacional, de modo a desenvolver a imagem e notoriedade do ISCAP a nível internacional, além da gestão de parcerias e intercâmbios globais de estudantes e staff no programa ERASMUS+. O intuito da minha participação no departamento pode ser descrita com a aquisição de experiência profissional numa área relacionada com o Mestrado, e utilizar de forma prática os conhecimentos teóricos abordados em aula. O estágio proporcionou-me inúmeras oportunidades de desenvolvimento, nomeadamente nas áreas da comunicação, marketing, design, gestão de eventos, turismo, liderança, trabalho de equipa, e em especial, o contacto intercultural.
As crescentes alterações do panorama de mobilidade e interação cultural entre países devem-se à globalização, um processo de conectividade intercultural e internacional justificado maioritariamente pelo desenvolvimento tecnológico do século XXI, e da criação de novas iniciativas não só educativas, como também diplomáticas como o ERASMUS+. O objetivo do relatório de estágio é proporcionar uma sólida base teórica acerca do contacto e entendimento intercultural, com foco especial no paradigma internacional da comunidade académica do ISCAP, de modo a compreender os esforços feitos através do meu trabalho no GRI para o melhor desenvolvimento de iniciativas interculturais no ISCAP, e consequentemente a sua notoriedade.
Algo importante a salientar, é que adicionalmente à análise das competências desenvolvidas e experiências vividas da minha parte, quis compreender a opinião e as experiências dos outros, neste caso, os estudantes internacionais, que são uma importantíssima parte da comunidade iscapiana. Para tal, realizei entrevistas e um questionário direcionado aos estudantes internacionais, de modo a perceber que aspetos foram benéficos ou contraprodutivos na sua estadia na instituição, e de que modo podemos implementar melhorias na organização geral do ISCAP.
The present internship report serves as a testimony of the work I have developed over the course of 7 months at ISCAP´s International Office, which develops events of an international nature to uphold ISCAP´s image and notoriety at an international level, along with managing global partnerships and exchanges of students and staff within the ERASMUS+ program. The aim of my participation in the mentioned department can be described as attaining experience in an area related to the Masters, and utilizing the theoretical knowledge covered in class in a practical way. The internship provided me with numerous opportunities for growth, namely in the fields of communication, marketing, design, event management, tourism, leadership, teamwork, and especially intercultural contact. The growing changes in the panorama of mobility and cultural interaction between countries are due to globalization, a process of intercultural and international connectivity, justified mainly by the technological development of the 21st century, and the creation of initiatives, not only educational but also diplomatic, such as ERASMUS+. The goal of the internship report is to provide a solid theoretical basis about intercultural contact and understanding, with a special focus on the international paradigm of ISCAP´s academic community, to understand the efforts made through my efforts at GRI, for the better development of intercultural initiatives at ISCAP, and consequently it´s notoriety. Something important to note is that, in addition to analyzing my own skill development and experiences, I wanted to understand the opinions and adventures of others, in this case, international students, who are a very important part of the ISCAP community. To this end, I conducted interviews and a survey, to understand which aspects were beneficial or counterproductive during their stay at the institution, and how we can implement improvements in the general organization of ISCAP.
