Blended Intensive Programmes

BIPs (Blended Intensive Programmes) are short-term courses that offer students the opportunity to experience international education and collaborate with students from different countries. They combine a virtual (online) component with a physical component, which includes a short stay at an ENLIGHT partner university abroad.

These courses are ideal for students looking for a flexible learning format combined with an international experience. The courses are also generally transdisciplinary and make use of innovative teaching methods.

The application deadline is 15 November 2026.
