The international competitive ability of European higher education area, international mobility and high level of university graduates’ employment as well as successful integration into international labour market are the main aims of the Bologna Process. EU and national documents emphasise the development of European dimensions and content internationalisation in study programmes, training of a flexible, mobile, constantly improving and public active specialist who will integrate into the competitive labour market, mobility of the academic community and international cooperation. The development of intercultural competence becomes a more topical subject of the research taking globalisation processes into consideration. That is why it is important to understand the influence of internationalisation processes in the institution on the development of Master’s Degree (MA) students’ intercultural competence through their experience gained in the study process. The aim of the research presented in this article is to discuss the development of MA students’ intercultural competence in the context of internationalisation processes in the institution.
