Photo Contest
Every year, a number of our students decide to do a semester or internship abroad while we also welcome many students from other countries: Maybe you are one of them! In this case, we would like to invite you to participate in our photo competition “Postcards from abroad”!
To join this contest, please send us your pictures of beautiful places you visited, interesting people you met, crazy things you perhaps did, or adventures you experienced during your stay abroad.
Win great prizes!
The best pictures will be awarded with fantastic prizes—Amazon vouchers, FH UA-Goodies such as powerbanks, hoodies, backpacks and more!
