Scientific research has shown that exposure to such diversity has educational benefits for all students. The aim of this project is the ensure that Erasmus University fully realises the benefits of its diverse student body. Specifically, this project involves encouraging students to engage and interact with others from a range of different backgrounds as part of their coursework and studying the impact of these interactions on subsequent attitudes and behaviour.
