institutions

In order to further our students networking and to enhance and reinforce their experience in today’s global environment, EICAR has formal relationships with International academic institutions. Through joint productions, exchange programs, and dual degrees, these partnerships provide value to our students who can work on international productions or further their studies at EICAR and other institutions.

Additionally, International co- productions with other institutions extend the schools’ multicultural approach: students are exposed to different learning methods, production environments, tools and methods.
