They form, over time, a group of "ambassadors" who contribute to increasing its visibility at an international level.
"In recent years, Transylvania University of Brasov understood that internationalization represents a strategic tool for increasing the quality of academic processes, as well as visibility, gradually implementing a strategy to develop its international dimension. The results did not take long to appear: only in the last 4 years, the number of international students increased by over 50%.
