A few days \u2013 is it enough to get to know each other better? We will check it during the first Transform4Europe Week. It is one of the events initiated by our European University. During this time there will be meetings, conversations, workshops, shows and many other events so that we can learn more about each other.<\/p>\n
The organiser of the pilot edition is the University of Silesia in Katowice. In May 2022 we will invite to Poland students, PhD students, as well as academic and non-academic staff representing each of the alliance\u2019s universities.<\/p>\n
Five days will be filled with a rich offer of master classes, joint research projects, didactic classes, excursions, workshops and artistic events. We will have a chance to learn alliance languages as part of the Languages for Lunch initiative. Afternoon meetings will allow us to get to know the local art and culture better. Concerts and thematic evenings will be organized in cooperation with the Student Government at the University of Silesia. Evening attractions will take place both in clubs and in outdoor locations. It is worth noting that Transform4Europe Week is also an online meeting prepared for the whole academic community of our European University.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”container”][vc_column]\r\n

At the basis of cooperation within the Trasform4Europe alliance lies the conviction that universities can play an important role in the processes of European transformation – among others through education and training of students. Therefore, the curriculum for those who will participate in Transform4Europe Week has been prepared based on three pillars: digital, environmental, and social transformation.<\/p>\n
Between 9 and 13 May, groups of about twenty students from seven countries will participate in modules conducted by researchers from the University of Silesia and partner universities. The offer includes classes in social sciences and humanities as well as new information technologies. Students of environmental sciences will go into the field to examine the specific features of the region, including its post-industrial conditions, under the guidance of Silesian specialists.<\/p>\n
It is worth emphasising that the educational offer takes into account not only those who will come to Katowice in May. It will be possible to participate in most of the twenty modules remotely. This reflects the assumption of equal accessibility to the entire event.<\/p>\n
In addition to daily classes, students of the universities of the alliance will be involved in a variety of activities prepared by the University Council of the Student Government of the University of Silesia in Katowice. The plans include, among others, regional dance workshops, a picnic and a visit to the Silesian Museum.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>[\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”RESEARCH STREAM” tab_id=”research-stream”]\r\n

Among the goals of the Transform4Europe, a crucial place is taken by the exchange of educational and research experiences, and the creation of an international campus (which will be a network of laboratories, libraries, and other elements of research infrastructure available for all partner universities).<\/p>\n
The Transform4Europe Week will bring us closer to achieving these goals. In Katowice, we will host five educational and research employees from each partner university. Regardless of the country their Alma Mater is located in, academics face similar administrative problems, apply for the same calls for proposals, and work according to the same framework (Bologna Process). The exchange of good practices and individual experiences will surely benefit all researchers visiting the University of Silesia in May.<\/p>\n
What do scientists from our University want to offer to their colleagues within the Research Stream? Among others the debate Challenges of the European Science in the 21st century, workshops on effective research projects (conducted by M. Bauman, PhD, from Berlin), and training on preparing a scientific poster\/abstract\/conference presentation.<\/p>\n
Science conference regulars know that behind-the-scenes discussions are invaluable. Therefore, members of the Alliance will have time for informal exchange of thoughts as well. There are numerous attractions outside the campus prepared, among others: a field trip to Nikiszowiec, a historic district of Katowice, participation in astronomical projection, and a concert extraordinaire by the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>[\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”DOCTORAL STREAM” tab_id=”doctoral-stream”]\r\n

Transform4Europe Week is a unique opportunity to meet new people, establish research contacts, and exchange experiences with young scientists. It is also a unique opportunity to participate in international research teams tailored to the interests of doctoral students from all universities of the Transform4Europe alliance.<\/p>\n
By participating in Transform4Europe Week, you will find out what research your colleagues from other allied universities are conducting and you will become part of our European university network. You’ll take part in a debate entitled \u201cThe challenges for science in Europe in the XXI century\u201d. You can also expect: many meetings in an international group of researchers, events to establish new scientific contacts, and initiatives through which you will discover one of the most interesting regions in Poland and its attractions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]\r\n
