Research internships, joint research projects, online seminars, additional scholarships – these are just some of the opportunities offered by the Unite! alliance for students, PhD candidates, and staff of Wrocław University of Science and Technology. We’ll present the details on April 15 at the Student Culture Zone during the Let’s Unite! fair.
Unite! is an alliance of nine European technical universities, established to create a modern model of university education. Alongside Wrocław Tech, the alliance includes: Universidade de Lisboa (Portugal), Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Spain), Politecnico di Torino (Italy), University Grenoble Alpes (France), Graz University of Technology (Austria), Technical University of Darmstadt (Germany), KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden), and Aalto University (Finland).
Being part of the consortium, as explained by Prof. Renata Krzyżyńska, Vice-Rector for External Relations, is a great opportunity for the entire Wrocław Tech community. – Innovation arises where resources meet. And our alliance has a great deal of resources – 280,000 students and tens of thousands of researchers and administrative staff. Add to that infrastructure worth billions, including research facilities, enabling the development of new technologies. It opens up completely new perspectives for us – says Prof. Krzyżyńska.
The scope of Unite! initiatives is constantly expanding, which is why we’re organizing this event. – We want every student and staff member to know where to find the offer catalogues and how to make the most of them. During Let’s Unite!, attendees will have a chance to meet people directly involved in the alliance who will explain the available programs for each group – students, PhD candidates, researchers, and administrative staff – explains Anna Hejno, Director of the Center for International Relations. The program also includes short talks highlighting the idea behind the alliance and its development prospects.
