Blended Total Immersion Week - Advanced Regional and Transversal Skills

March 2026 in France: Risk Leadership in Business

8th Pan-European FWPM as Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme on the Campus of the Université de Bretagne-Sud in France

From March 9–13, 2026 (plus short online preparational and follow-up activities in the days before and after this period), the English-language FWPM “Blended Total Immersion WeekAdvanced Regional and Transversal Skills” will take place for the fourth time as part of the Erasmus+ programme track "Blended Intensive Programme (BIP)" on the campus of the TH AB partner institution Université de Bretagne-Sud, in Vannes. If you want a city in Brittany that sums up the spirit and beauty of this region, Vannes is a hot favourite. It offers the rich cultural heritage associated with northwest France, a chic harbour that brings the sea right into the city centre, a vibrant student population, plus a sense of historic elegance. Once visited, Vannes is never forgotten.

The FWPM is creditable with 5 ECTS towards the profile "BW/BWR International". A total of five places are available for students from Aschaffenburg UAS. The other participants come from our partner universities in France (Université de Bretagne-Sud), Italy (Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore), Spain (Universidad Málaga), Finland (Turku UAS) and Sweden (Mid Sweden University). The elective is hosted by one of these European partners in turn each semester and took place for the first time in March 2022 organised by Aschaffenburg UAS.

The motto of the BIP at the Université de Bretagne-Sud is "Risk Leadership in Business"; the participants will jointly learn why smart risk management is key to staying ahead in today’s fast-changing world. Students will also examine the different types of risks that companies face and discover how to identify, assess, and transform risks into opportunities for growth.

The BIP’s underlying concept of Total Immersion includes a language taster course in French/tandem partnerships as well as cultural activities like immersing themselves in Brittonic-French culture and taking part in excursions matching the motto – in addition to subject-specific and intercultural content.
