The International Nordic University continues to expand the scope of scientific cooperation. Within the framework of the Erasmus Mundus program, preliminary negotiations were held in Budapest, the capital of Hungary, on the project “Joint Master’s Degree in Water Resources and Water Diplomacy Management in the Context of Sustainable Development.”

In particular, he suggested that four social science subjects be taught by Nordic professors and teachers, and contributed important recommendations regarding the structure of the curriculum and course programs.
During the discussions, the following issues were agreed upon:
➖ Curriculum and subjects of the joint master’s program
➖ Forms of education and assessment system

Motivation — Awaken Your Inner Strength!
It encourages us to move forward, face challenges with confidence, and pursue our goals with determination. Most importantly, motivation does not force a person to act; rather, it provides the opportunity to choose and act consciously.
🎓 A small study conducted by students of the Psychology program at our university examined the motivation levels of 51 student respondents.
📊 The results were as follows:
🔹 37.3% of students demonstrated very high levels of motivation
🔹 33.3% showed considerably high motivation
🔹 29.4% displayed moderate levels of motivation.
💡 These findings indicate that the majority of students possess a strong desire for learning, personal development, and goal-oriented progress. At the same time, strengthening psychological support and engagement with students who demonstrate moderate levels of motivation can further enhance the effectiveness of the educational process.
✨ Psychologists recommend:
• Break large goals into smaller, manageable steps
• Reward yourself after completing tasks
• Develop positive thinking: repeat to yourself, “I can do it!”
• Share your achievements with your close ones.
🚀 Remember: motivation is the first step toward success.
When guided properly, it opens the door to new opportunities.
