Intercultural and interprofessional skills are essential for today's health professionals. Students, graduates and employees of FH Campus Wien have precisely these skills. Four initiatives from the Departments Health Sciences and Applied Nursing Science show how it's done.
In order to work together across cultures in interprofessional teams, intercultural perspectives are also necessary. The degree programs Logopedics - Phoniatrics - Audiology and Occupational Therapy are aware of this and have therefore launched the International Interprofessional Week. Students from Austria, Switzerland, France, the Czech Republic and the Netherlands met with lecturers from partner universities in Belgium, Germany, Sweden and Bulgaria. Experts in occupational therapy, speech therapy, healthcare and nursing as well as social work imparted interprofessional knowledge. During the week, the students strengthened their intercultural skills, made important contacts for their future professional practice and are now able to compare global perspectives in a therapeutic context. A successful concept that will be continued in 2024 and expanded through the participation of other degree programs.
The Erasmus+ project FORCE is setting new standards in the international networking of students and lecturers of the degree program Radiological Technology. As part of the project, a virtual, web-based and freely accessible teaching and learning platform is being developed. Students from all over the world will be able to expand their radiographic know-how in an interactive and problem-oriented way, but the initiative also goes beyond the virtual. Barbara Kraus, project manager and head of the degree program Sonography, took part in the World Congress of the International Society of Radiographers and Radiological Technologists in Bangkok and was able to engage in constructive discussions about the content of the project. Christoph Kamp, project member as well as lecturer and researcher in radiological technology, traveled to a transnational project meeting in Bergen, Norway.
Cooperation across national borders is a tradition at FH Campus Wien. During the International Week, the Department Applied Nursing Science intensified its cooperation with European partner universities. Lecturers and students from Finland, Portugal, Slovenia and Turkey traveled to Vienna for the event. The focus of the exchange is always on learning from each other. In particular, the comparison of similarities in healthcare and the discussion of country-specific differences in the healthcare and education systems provided valuable insights. Particularly nice, in addition to the expert input, was the varied supporting program offering the opportunity to network and exchange ideas.
Developing personally and professionally in another country and strengthening one's own language skills in the process is usually a formative study experience. The Bachelor's degree program Healthcare and Nursing encourages students in their 5th semester to take advantage of the opportunity to study abroad. The Erasmus+ and the Swiss-European Mobility Program (SEMP), which support internationality at European universities, offer financial support. Graduates can also complete an Erasmus+-funded graduate internship abroad after completing their studies.
Internationalization is a task for the entire FH Campus Wien. Through our global partnerships and strategic networks, we strengthen international and intercultural learning, knowledge exchange and cooperation in teaching, research and administration.
