BIP: EU LAW & INSTITUTIONS 2025

The Blended Intense Programme (BIP) EU Law & EU Institutions, worth 3 ECTS, is an intensive programme for students pursuing a Bachelor degree in Law or Business Law. During this two-week event, we aim to improve legal knowledge of EU institutions and EU law. During the 2025 edition, the participating students were involved in studying, elaborating, and discussing EU-legislation in a mock European Parliament. Participants gained meaningful intercultural experiences through frequent formal and non-formal contact moments. They also trained their digital competences and collaboration skills. This badge is awarded for successful participation in the BIP EU Law & Institutions and for submitting solid and well-developed assignments and making clear and well-structured legal proposals. This badge also indicates that participating students were given the opportunity to develop and sharpen the following international competences (ICOMs): - Global and European engagement - International disciplinary learning - Personal growth, intercultural competence and language skills See the ICOMs competency framework for details: http://www.internationalecompetenties.be/en/
