Sažetak
The Covid-19 pandemic footprint on higher education along with the globalization of job markets pose new challenges to the professional competencies that students should be equipped with.The present research addresses this issue by investigating intercultural and interdisciplinary communication, student international training and foreign language learning needs within the digital channels the pandemic has imposed. Data were collected from a research sample of 308 students, teachers and business sector professionals originating from Croatia, Greece and Portugal. Results indicate that training on intercultural and interdisciplinary communication is considered important, teamwork and communication skills stand out as the most significant professional competencies and spoken fluency along with knowledge of discipline specific terminology constitute the foreign language needs of students. These findings indicate competencies and needs which if included in university undergraduate programmes of study will enable students to be better equipped for their careers in the context of global competence as described in the 2020 OECD report.
