Christina Prassa

Role

My role is to coordinate the activity with NTU Global’s international partners. I manage the international business evaluation processes and support staff across the Schools with proposals. I also manage the databases of legal agreements and partnerships and ensure they are efficiently developed. Furthermore, I also support with various other projects and student experience programmes.

Career overview

I joined NTU in April 2020, where I initially worked at the School of Social Sciences as a School Support Administrator and then promoted to School Administrator. During my time there, I got involved in various School activities and was responsible for the coordination of incoming and outgoing student exchange, for which I managed the workstreams and established the administrative process.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in German Language and Philology from the Aristotle University, Greece, and a Master’s degree in Culture, Language, Media from the European University Flensburg, Germany. I have lived and worked in Germany for over 2 years, during which I worked at the University’s International Office, the Communications and Marketing Department and as an Academic Tutor teaching for the module ‘Art & Media’ of the BA European Cultures and Society. I have also created European University Flensburg’s official Instagram page, connecting international and home students to increase recruitment and global outreach.

Moreover, I enjoy travelling, seeing new cultures, and learning languages and has so far travelled to 30 countries. I am a native speaker of Greek and speak English, German and Danish. I have taken part in the Erasmus+ programme twice during my undergraduate and postgraduate studies, which enriched my international experience, and in 2015 I was awarded with a Scholarship from the Danish Ministry of Higher Education and Science to study Danish at the Copenhagen Centre for Adult Education (KVUC).

External activity

Apart from my role within NTU Global, I'm a qualified Yoga Instructor having completed the accredited by Yoga Alliance 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. I specialise in Yin, Hatha, Vinyasa, and Pre-and postnatal Yoga. You can also find me delivering weekly Yoga classes at NTU Sport.
