After six exciting months of interning for UAS7 in New York City, my time in the city that never sleeps has come to an end. I would like to take a moment to look back on this incredible time.

Porto Alegre is the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, a state in Brazil’s south region, where the campus of two partners of UAS7 are located: Unisinos and PUCRS.

No mês de maio, a 8ª Jornada Internacional de Enfermagem, o 6º Seminário em Saúde Materno-Infantil e o 6º Simpósio de Enfermagem Brasil-Alemanha foram realizados na Universidade Franciscana (UFN), parceira da UAS7.

O Centro Alemão de Ciência e Inovação (DWIH) São Paulo realizou seu primeiro workshop interno – uma oportunidade para reunir os cooperadores da instituição (que também inclui UAS7 ) e discutir os resultados do trabalho já realizado e as perspectivas para o futuro.

The internship at the UAS7 Liaison Office in New York felt both like a lifetime and like two days, despite being six months long. I learned a lot from my colleagues and had the opportunity to participate in thought-provoking events. I encourage others to live abroad and experience different cultures, as it can be a truly enriching adventure.

What is it like to study and intern in Germany? Camille Sofia Hennemann, Food Engineering student from Unisinos, Brazil shares her experience in Osnabrück during her UAS7 exchange.

Meet Carolina and Morgana, the new team members of UAS7. For the first time, we will be working with two interns simultaneously - Carolina operating in the USA and Morgana in Brazil. Their mother tongue is one of the things that enhance their connection - find out more about their background.

Gabriel Steinberg, recent computer science graduate from Binghamton University (SUNY), added a practical research experience to his studies. Through the UAS7 internship program, he was originally going to complete a research internship in multi-agent modelling and simulation with the MARS group at HAW Hamburg in Germany, but the corona pandemic put an end to those plans. Deciding he didn’t want to pass up on the opportunity, he arranged with the coordinating professor to complete the research remotely.
