Job Description

We are looking for an International Coordinator who wants to help develop Chalmers' student exchange and the unit's continued development of support for incoming and outgoing students.

• Informing and communicating with incoming and outgoing students
• Providing support to students primarily via email
• Selecting outgoing students
• Promoting exchange agreements to students
• Managing and enhancing relationships with exchange partners
