Let’s Unite! – the second edition returns on 3 March

Research internships, joint research projects, online seminars, and additional scholarships – these are just some of the opportunities offered by the Unite! alliance that students, doctoral candidates, and staff of Wrocław University of Science and Technology can benefit from. We will present the details on 3 March at the Student Culture Zone, during the second edition of the Let’s Unite! fair. Special guests of the event will be students from partner universities within the Alliance.

The Let’s Unite! fair is an opportunity to explore, in one place, the offer of educational programmes, research projects, student initiatives, and mobility opportunities available through the cooperation of nine European technical universities forming the Unite! alliance.

What will set the second edition of the event apart is the participation of students from Unite! partner universities, who will come to Wrocław to share their experiences. They will talk about what studying at their home universities is like, how education systems differ, and what academic life and everyday student life look like in other European countries. This is a unique opportunity to view international mobility from a different perspective than usual.

During the fair, participants will be able to talk to Unite! representatives at Wrocław University of Science and Technology, ask questions about mobility opportunities, joint courses, projects, and scholarships, and learn how to get involved in the Alliance’s activities in practice.

The second edition of Let’s Unite! is aimed at everyone considering studying, conducting research, or cooperating in an international environment — and who would like to find out where best to start.

A detailed programme will be announced soon.

2nd edition of the Let’s Unite! fair

  • 12:00–15:00 – Information stands presenting opportunities for students, doctoral candidates and staff
  • 12:00–15:00 – Study at Unite! universities – poster session featuring students from partner institutions
  • 13:00 – Official opening of the fair and presentation of the Alliance’s offer

Leaders of Change Needed. Unite! launches a new sustainability course

Sustainability today is more than a catchy slogan – it is about concrete decisions, processes and competencies that universities need here and now. In the second half of February, the nine-module online course “Unite! Training Programme on Sustainability for Prospective Leaders” will be launched on the Metacampus platform. The programme shows how to translate climate goals into real action and effective leadership. It was developed through the collaboration of experts from Wrocław Tech, Politecnico di Torino, UPC and TU Graz, and is addressed to students and staff members who want to actively shape the transformation of their institutions.

– Transition towards sustainability at universities is a challenging process. It requires competences to make conscious decisions, the courage to change, and people who can connect strategy with everyday practice. This course was created precisely to support future leaders in implementing real change – explains prof. Magdalena Bamborska-Narożny, leader of Community 8, which developed the programme.

The course takes the form of a coherent, nine-module learning pathway and guides participants through the key areas of sustainability in higher education – from basic concepts and the role of universities in achieving global sustainability goals, through strategy and governance, to very practical issues related to energy, campus infrastructure, environmental data reporting and communicating results to decision-makers.

A strong emphasis is placed on practice. Participants will work with real-life examples from Unite! alliance universities, learning how to use tools for monitoring and analysing environmental data, exploring eco-design solutions, and analysing green business models and ways of engaging the academic community in change processes. The programme also covers topics related to sustainable mobility, the organisation of academic events and reducing the carbon footprint of business travel.

An important element of the course is its forward-looking perspective. A module dedicated to lifelong learning highlights how to develop green skills in the long term and the role micro-credentials can play in this process. In turn, classes on sustainable energy management help participants better understand decision-making processes related to energy projects, even for those without a specialised technical background.

“Unite! Training Programme on Sustainability for Prospective Leaders” is a proposal for those who want to consciously and responsibly co-create the future of higher education. The course will start on 16 February and will be delivered entirely online.

Detailed information about the course and registration is available on the Metacampus platform. The programme is delivered fully online and has a modular structure, allowing participants to flexibly combine learning with their daily professional responsibilities. To complete the “Unite! Training Programme on Sustainability for Prospective Leaders”, participants must complete at least five course modules, covering both strategic issues and practical tools supporting the implementation of sustainability at universities.

Unite! Seed Fund – from an idea to an international project. Workshops for the Wrocław Tech community

A good idea is only the beginning. How can it be turned into an international project with real funding and partners from leading European universities?

We will look for answers to these questions at the workshop “Unite! Seed Fund – from an Idea to an International Project”, taking place on 23 January at Wrocław University of Science and Technology. The event is open to students, academic teachers, and researchers who plan to apply for a grant in the upcoming call. The application period opens on 20 January and runs until 20 March.

Unite! Seed Fund is one of the most accessible support instruments within the European University Alliance Unite!. Minimal formal requirements, a fast decision-making process, and a strong focus on innovation are its key features. During the meeting at WUST, participants will learn how to use this potential in practice—from the first idea, through team building, to drafting a proposal ready for further consultation.

The event will be opened by Prof. Renata Krzyżyńska, Vice-Rector for External Relations. The first part of the meeting will provide an introduction to the Seed Fund programme—its objectives, scope of support, and examples of projects already implemented within Unite!. This will be followed by a short Q&A session and networking over coffee.

The main part of the event will consist of parallel workshops tailored to three target groups. Students will focus on developing innovative, interdisciplinary initiatives—from technological projects and hackathons to social actions. Researchers will learn how to use the Seed Fund as a rapid proof of concept ahead of applying for a larger grant. Academic teachers will take part in the track “Educational Innovations with Unite! – from Idea to Implementation”, designed for those considering new courses, modules, COIL projects, micro-credentials, or summer schools delivered in international cooperation.
