International Marketing Experience

The MARUG International Marketing Experience (IME) offers both Dutch and international students a unique opportunity to visit marketing-related companies in a European city, gaining insight into the differences in business culture compared to the Netherlands. During company visits, you'll tackle business cases, and there will also be ample time to explore the city. In the seven weeks leading up to the trip, lectures and social events will be held to provide more insights and help you get to know your fellow students. In previous years, the IME has visited exciting cities like Milan, Budapest, Rome, Madrid, Bucharest, Istanbul, Prague, Barcelona, Vienna, and Lisbon.

Do you want to develop yourself further alongside your studies, expand your international network, and work collaboratively in a close-knit committee? Then the IME is for you!

As a member of the IME committee, you'll start preparations seven months before the trip. Together with the MARUG board, you'll be responsible for selecting the destination, after which the committee organizes the trip and its preparatory program. Your responsibilities will include contacting foreign companies for visits, Dutch companies for the preparatory program, and planning leisure activities in the chosen city.

After your committee period, you'll have successfully organized an amazing trip for approximately 30 students. You'll have visited a beautiful European city, expanded your international network, and gained many insights into marketing and cultural differences. You'll also have learned how to organize an event as part of a team and gained valuable experiences beyond your studies, which will significantly enhance your resume.
