My career change is happening thanks to the MEIG Programme

Ms. Andréa Oliveira Silva Luz
MEIG Graduate 2019-2020, Intern at International Anti-Corruption Academy

I was looking for an interdisciplinary master’s degree, that would expand my knowledge beyond the law and that would be able to drive my career change to the international field, as I was planning. 
MEIG Programme was the opportunity to have a better understanding of international and European governance, the functioning of the UN and EU institutions, and the most exciting was the opportunity to visit institutions and have classes there, feeling that environment and listening to practitioners passionate about their work. It was challenging to study so many different topics in such a critical way, but at the same time, it was gratifying.
Having colleagues from eighteen different nationalities and with different backgrounds made this experience even more special, as it allowed to learn more about culture and customs and reproduced, on a smaller scale, the challenges on international governance.
My career change is happening, with extensive knowledge and new friends, thanks to the MEIG Programme.
