Dissertations/Theses Abroad - Online and on-site

 
dissertation
 
Do you want to conduct research for your studies, BA, MA, Diploma, Masters or PhD degree, with an organisation abroad? Our program "Dissertation/Theses abroad” will help you with this.
 
 
We offer you assistance in various logistical areas which are often difficult to handle yourself. The following are the things we assist you with.
 
  • Topic selection: : We have a List of suggested topics. This is generally used as a guide, and you can then finalise the exact topic with your university and the supervisor abroad.
  • Academically qualified tutors are available, who will help determine a research methodology which makes sure your research can be competed within the stipulated time. The idea is that you successfully conduct the research and travel back with enough time to do the writing for your thesis. The supervision can also completely be done online and virtual visits/virtual interviews can be arranged.
  • The tutor is available just for you for at least two hours per week 
  • Your tutor can:
    • Provide a relevant introduction / background information about your topic of interest
    • Give access to local resources such as relevant documents, libraries and data.
    • Arrange local interview partners, if necessary.
    • Provide access to facilities, materials and equipment such as a laboratory, ground testing, etc.
    • Translators/Interpretors can be arranged, if required, at additional cost.

 

Who are the tutors?
 
All tutors are academically qualified. They have appropriate degrees and work experience, including academic work. They are senior executives of organizations or projects, or people who are active in research and teaching on site, in local universities or research institutions.
 
How does it work?
 
We have a constantly growing collection of Topics in Various Fields that are proposed by the tutors abroad. You choose a topic that appeals to you. You discuss it with your university and you can then further define it with our tutor.
 
As soon as your university approves your topic and your methodology, you book your program participation.
 
You will receive a detailed introduction from your tutor and you will then have regular meetings (at least once a week for 2 hours) to get feedback, tips and advice until you have completed your research.
 
Advantages:
 
  • You have access to quality local expertise and sources
  • You save yourself a lot of organizational effort
  • You reach your research goals within the specified time
  • You work on issues that are of relevance for the people or the local environment; i.e., you contribute through your research, to the optimization of the work of local Organizations, thus, benefiting your host country
 
What are the costs?
 
In the case of on-site research, the costs for our service package and accommodation are identical to those for internships and volunteer work for the respective location, type of accommodation and duration of stay. In addition, there is a weekly fee for the supervision by a local tutor of 30-50 EUR/week.
 
In case of joining the program REMOTELY/ONLINE, the costs are identical to the costs for our remote internships.

Intercultural Competence

 
interculturalheader 
 
"Genuine tragedies in the world are not conflicts between right and wrong; they are conflicts between two rights."
Georg Friedrich Wilhelm Hegel
 
With increasing globalization and the increased mobility of people around the world, cultural differences make their way more and more into the everyday life of many people.
 
However, many people are not properly prepared for this and as a result, projects fail where people of different cultures are not working well together, companies incur huge unforeseen costs due to failed assignments, the international development aid (besides other reasons) has burned incredible amounts of money and achieved very little, and many expatriats fail to adjust to new environments.  We have also observed that most difficulties that volunteers and interns face while being abroad can be attributed to cultural differences.
 
Intercultural Competence is too often restricted to superficial "rituals" such as greetings, eating etiquettes, clothing, etc. However, matters of Intercultural Competency run much deeper - to the very mental programming of individuals, their core values and how those dictate their actions.
 
We offer the following service related to Intercultral Learning:
 
  • Preparation materials and videos for all our participants in the Log-In Area of this website
  • Hofstede Culture Compass, a test allowing you to measure your score on the Hofstede 6D Model of Culture and to compare it with the average score of your home country and the country where you want to travel
  • Intercultural Training for Groups on-site in China, Japan, India and Bolivia
  • Tailormade One-to-one or Group Skype/zoom/google Coaching with our intercultural coach; also as part of other programs such as remote group internships
