Throughout May, as part of the 75th anniversary of Europe Day and within the framework of the Jean Monnet Module project — for which we were selected among over 1,300 applications worldwide — we carried out a series of academic and institutional engagement activities.
🎓 Activities with Undergraduate Students
On May 5, we welcomed the Cooperation Area of the Delegation of the European Union 🇪🇺 in Argentina 🇦🇷, Campus France 🇫🇷, and the Embassy of Belgium 🇧🇪 to speak with our students about exchange opportunities and international cooperation.
On May 6, Prof. María Gattinoni delivered a special lecture on the European Union 🇪🇺, providing students with deeper insights into the regional bloc.
Finally, on May 29, undergraduate and graduate students visited the Embassy of Poland 🇵🇱, where they were received by the Chargé d'Affaires and Head of the Political-Economic Section, Ms. Bogna Ruminowicz, Counsellor Mr. Adam Grzegorz Ryszka, and First Secretary Ms. Alicja Tunk.
🌐 Institutional and International Engagements
Throughout the month, the coordination team of the Jean Monnet Module attended the Europe Day celebration organized by the Delegation of the European Union 🇪🇺 in Argentina 🇦🇷, as well as the International Conference on Disinformation, organized by the Embassy of Poland 🇵🇱, the Delegation of the European Union 🇪🇺, the Embassy of Canada 🇨🇦, the Embassy of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland 🇬🇧, the Embassy of Ukraine 🇺🇦, and the Embassy of France 🇫🇷.
We were also honored by the presence of the European Union Ambassador to Argentina 🇪🇺🇦🇷, Mr. Amador Sánchez Rico, who addressed the incoming students of the Master’s in International Relations and the graduates of the School of Government’s master's programs during their graduation ceremony.
From our School, we extend our sincere thanks to the authorities of the various institutions and renew our commitment to building bridges for international dialogue.
Happy Anniversary, Europe! 🇪🇺✨

Experiences like student visits to embassies, engagement with EU delegations, and lectures on regional cooperation are exactly the kind of exposure that motivates learners to think globally—and often sparks interest in studying abroad.
Programs connected to Europe Day, Jean Monnet Modules, and international cooperation naturally align with study abroad pathways, particularly in Europe and the UK. These experiences help students:
Understand international relations through direct institutional engagement
Build cultural competence and diplomatic awareness
Explore academic mobility, exchanges, and global career pathways
Connect theory with real-world policy, governance, and cooperation

“From Classrooms to Embassies: Living Europe Month” perfectly highlights how global exposure goes beyond textbooks and turns learning into real-world experience. Events like these help students understand international education pathways, cultural diplomacy, and academic mobility in a practical way. For students considering study abroad options in North America, understanding university entry requirements is equally important. For example, the Toronto Metropolitan University acceptance rate reflects a moderately competitive admission process, encouraging students to prepare strong academic profiles and relevant experience. Together, global academic events and clear admission insights empower students to make informed decisions about studying internationally and building globally relevant careers
Living Europe Month connects classrooms with embassies, helping students experience European culture, diplomacy, and global citizenship firsthand. Such experiential learning values, echoed in discussions at the BPP University London campus, broaden perspectives beyond textbooks.
