Nino Abazadze, the Georgian Master Student in Survey Statistics at the University of Bamberg, shared her rich experience of studying and working in an EU country. The lecture drew a serious attention from the IDS students who have an ambition to continue studies in an EU country and test the working and living environment there. A lot of questions were asked, and a live discussion held. As well as studying, Nino is also a working student at– a company in a group of our great sponsor and friend – HiPP Corporation, in their purchasing department, and she is also writing her master thesis at Kantar.

In its short history, the IDS has a few of the Erasmus students already sent to Europe to continue studies and complete them upon return to Georgia, and also visiting Erasmus+ students who complete a semester at the IDS. For all future applicants, Nino Abazadze experience shared with openness, honesty and empathy, was a revelation that would prompt more IDS students to examine themselves in a different cultural environment.
