“May we come to your office for an observational internship?”

We received this question some time ago from four students at Ghent University College. Our answer? Of course, come by!

With a tight two-hour deadline, the students got to work. They had the freedom to open walls and move furniture as needed.

It was an educational day for the students, but also for us. Their enthusiasm was contagious, and we can’t wait to see more of them in the future!
