12 students started their project in Brazil

The number of students going to Minas Gerais, Brazil for their internship grows. More and more students are going to Brazil and also this semester. Twelve Dutch and international students from Avans University of Applied Sciences and HAS University of Applied Sciences are going to run a project at UFMG, UFV and PUC Minas. Let's introduce the students and their projects:
