This gave rise to the motto "Experience international communication in Wrocław" for the study trip from 14.06. to 15.06.2024 for class WMb22 as part of the "Polish in Business" module.

It was about yesterday, today and tomorrow. Of course, the question immediately arises as to whether a short study trip can come close to meeting this requirement and whether it is a realistic expectation for the students.

To anticipate - yes, everything can be made even better.

The students' "doing" led to "experiencing" in all dimensions of time. Claudia and Nikola designed the main sequence of events and the corresponding events. Arminius explained the history of the city of Wrocław to us in an informative and vivid way.

The importance of the city as a location for education and science in the past and present quickly became apparent when visiting the university, which has existed since 1702. Diversity and modernity are impressively visible both inside and out.

Practical insights into the work of the Liaison Office of the Free State of Saxony-Anhalt

Ms. Anna Leniart, Head of the Liaison Office of the Free State of Saxony in Wroclaw, gave us an insight into the diverse tasks of the office to promote cooperation between institutions, companies and cultural institutions of the Free State of Saxony and the regions of Lower Silesia and Lubusz. The presentation and subsequent discussion resulted in suggestions for possible internship semesters for students on our degree course at the institution.

Practical insights into German-Polish business life

In the regional office of the German-Polish Chamber of Industry and Commerce, Ms. Justyna Młynarz showed us the tasks, goals and visions of her institution as a service provider for over 1200 German and Polish companies. This also includes support in making contact with potential internships. We were surprised and amazed at how diverse her tasks and opportunities are.

Conclusion: An unforgettable experience - intercultural learning and European solidarity

The national team's 5:1 victory over Scotland, which we were able to experience in an Irish pub, made for an all-round successful evening.

Max Baganz, a volunteer from the European Solidarity Corps, introduced us to a different and complementary vision of finding work and the future. The variety of possible voluntary work in different European projects was surprising.

That was our WROCŁAW.
