IBMS Groningen Education Type
IBMS focuses on teaching students practically. Students work in different project groups every block with fellow students from different cultures, having an integrated assignment that relates to all other courses that come to complete the educational programme. Students focus on presentation skills, working internationally with a strong business focus.
Training is also provided in specific skills essential to successful future careers, such as giving and receiving feedback, working in groups, intercultural sensitivity, customer orientation and presentation skills.
Academic counseling is provided throughout all phases of the IBMS programme. In the first year, academic advice concentrates on following students’ study progress, helping students cope with the transfer to higher education and determining if the IBMS programme is suitable for the student in general. In the second and subsequent years, the Academic Advisor continues to monitor the students’ study progress, completes (together with the student) a study plan (for the Study Abroad specifically, the study plan is made together with their Study Abroad supervisor) and helps them to solve problems and interpret IBS rules.

Famous quotes containing the words education and/or type:
“Nature has taken more care than the fondest parent for the education and refinement of her children. Consider the silent influence which flowers exert, no less upon the ditcher in the meadow than the lady in the bower. When I walk in the woods, I am reminded that a wise purveyor has been there before me; my most delicate experience is typified there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“People forget that it is the eye that makes the horizon, and the rounding mind’s eye which makes this or that man a type or representative of humanity with the name of hero or saint.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
