Abstract in Undetermined
The report is an evaluation of five years of Linnaeus-Palme exchange programme between the chemistry departments at University of Gothenburg, Sweden and University of the West Indies, Jamaica. The exchange programme gives students and teachers at the two universities the possibility to study and teach at the partner university to better understand the international implications of studies and teaching but also from a more general standpoint. The outcomes were evaluated by participants’ reports, questionnaires and discussions with the participants and heads of department. The result of the evaluation is a positive response from all partners; students, teachers, coordinators, departmental heads. They report a high degree of satisfaction, a better understanding of cultural differences and the students rate a better self-confidence high.
