TakeOff 2024

Before the start of the academic year, the ITC organises a preparatory trajectory: TakeOff. This helps incoming students to prepare for departure, to get to know their fellow students at the faculty and get all the necessary information for a smooth start of their studies. It also offers time and space to settle in Ghent, finish all the administrative burdens and get acquainted with their new surroundings.

PreDeparture (June-August 2024)

Online preparatory information campaign for international master’s students regarding passports, visas, accommodation, bank account, insurance, registration, travel itineraries et cetera.
