We link foreign master’s, bachelor’s and doctoral students to the Basque ecosystem through the Be Basque Ambassadors y Study & Work programmes.
An additional objective of the programme is that should the foreign students choose to develop their professional careers in another part of the world, they can act as Basque ambassadors, maintaining their contact and feeling of belonging with our nation forever, which links up perfectly with the principles of Bizkaia Talent’s “Be Basque” strategy. Target group: foreign students doing PhD’s or other postgraduate studies in Bizkaia.BE BASQUE AMBASSADORS
