Unique opportunity for RWTH students
Volunteer and experience an amazing time full of cultural and fun activities! Spend intensive two, three or four weeks with our international students.
The Mentoring Program of RWTH International Academy – in cooperation with RWTH International Office – is a unique opportunity for RWTH students to build an international network and develop intercultural skills. Get ready for an unforgettable experience full of cultural and fun activities and become a mentor for our on-campus or online programs! Different to the International Office's BeBuddy program, our mentors spend a rather short, but especially intensive two, three or four weeks with one group of students they accompany.
At the end of the Short Course RWTH International Academy awards all mentors an official participation certificate for their efforts and support. Plus, our certificate can be recognized as part of the official "Certificate International" of RWTH Aachen University.
As a mentor you play a key role for our Short Courses students. With a group of other mentors you are responsible for the support of our international students during the social events (organized by RWTH International Academy) and their free time. Once the program starts, you welcome them together with us and help them form a group. Below are some exemplary activities you can organize in a Short Course for our international students.
