Ilze Plavgo, Latvia

European Studies and International Relations

I chose to do my undergraduate degree in Scotland in order to gain a wider international outlook and benefit fully from the highly developed Scottish educational system, as well as the breadth of module choice at the University of Dundee. I spent 2007-8 in Université Pierre-Mendès France on a year-long ERASMUS exchange - a wonderful experience that helped me develop my language skills and my understanding of the different cultures across Europe. Both universities gave me great insight into the organisation of different international & regional organisations, leading me to Brussels for an internship with the Permanent Representatation of Latvia to the European Union. My next step is to study for an Msc in Public Policy and Human Development, specialising in 'Globalisation, Trade and Development', at the Maastricht Graduate School of Governance.
