Development and implementation of a system to maintain contact with and assist outbound Erasmus+ students

Abstract

A poster presentation regarding the development and implementation of a system to maintain contact with and assist outbound Erasmus+ students. Introduction: Students in the last year of the three-year Bachelor of Science in Pharmaceutical Technology (Honours) have the opportunity to carry out an eight-week placement at a University of their choice in Europe as part of the Erasmus+ programme. At the end of the placement, students are asked to present a logbook to the home institution with daily entries about activities carried out during their placement and related reflections. Aim: To develop and implement a system to maintain regular periodic contact with students to support skills development, assist them with queries and with the compilation of logbooks during the Erasmus+ programme.
