Testimonials

"4 absolutely fantastic weeks. The seminars were really very relavant and the whole team made the experience wholly; academically and culturally. 
I’m going back with a very different perspective on sustainability, climate policies, climate justice and clear idea on the urgency of living more sustainably."

Odette M. N., UK, Hessen:ISU 2026

"I loved the course throughout and enjoyed every aspect that was planned for us. I also liked the fact that there were students from all around the globe who participated in the programme. It provided us a background on how organisations work in different countries. We also made some life-long relationships not only with fellow students but also with professors and executives during our excursions. It was an amazing experience through and through."

Gulit B., India, Hessen:ISU 2026

"I didn’t expect to enjoy the ISU experience as much as I did. As my first international project, it pushed me beyond my comfort zone and gave me the chance to grow both personally and professionally.

Meeting people from different cultures and taking part in every activity with curiosity and enthusiasm made this journey truly unforgettable.

I arrived with a 20 kg suitcase, but I left with something far more valuable: unforgettable memories, meaningful friendships, and experiences I’ll carry with me for a lifetime."

Simona J., Romania, Hessen:ISU 2026

"I had the best time during my ISU program in Darmstadt. I’ve made friends around the world that will last a lifetime, and I was able to explore Germany and immerse myself in its culture and history. It was the perfect balance between study and fun, I can’t recommend it enough!"
