As globalization proceeds apace on the labor market, intercultural skills grow in importance. This is true whether you are working in an international research group or in a multinational corporation or institution and is one of the reasons that we developed the Certificate Intercultural Competence (CIC). This certificate highlights your commitment to extracurricular and cross-cultural activities in addition to your standard academic pursuits when you begin, for example, applying for jobs. Instead of individual certificates for extracurricular activities or voluntary work, you can earn a single, comprehensive Certificate Intercultural Competence. This details your various skills and accomplishments.

Participation in our CIC program is free of charge! We hope it is understood as a reward for students particularly devoted to promoting intercultural awareness and understanding.
