Plus, you’ll receive a certificate – also valid for the <https://www.rwth-aachen.de/cms/root/studium/im-studium/engagement-freizeit/engagement-international/~bqxh/zertifikat-internationales/?lidx=1> Certificate International. Know someone who wants to join? Great! We’re especially looking for Buddies from Faculty 3, 5, 6 and 8.
