The workshop will take place from the 16th until the 18th of September 2023 in Karpacz (Poland)

Unite! partner university Wrocław Tech invites you to Karpacz from 16 to 18 September 2023 to join young researchers, PhD students and industry and policy experts in addressing pressing global challenges and promoting sustainable circular economy practices and initiatives: The focus will be on energy, green transition and climate.

Wrocław Tech will be hosting the upcoming edition of the VIII Unite! Dialogue, titled “Unite! Ecosystems,” scheduled to take place from the 19th to the 21st of September 2023.

This highly anticipated event will bring together representatives from all alliance universities, including faculty, staff, students, and decision-makers, to collaborate and discuss the future of the European University. The theme of “Unite! Ecosystems” encapsulates the core focus of the Dialogue, emphasizing the importance of fostering collaboration and integration within European University ecosystems to drive innovation, efficiency, and sustainable growth. By uniting ecosystems, the event aims to create a dynamic platform for diverse stakeholders to connect, exchange ideas, and collectively shape the future of higher education.

The Unite! Student Festival Lisbon 2023 took place at the University of Lisbon, between the 29th of June and the 1st of July 2023, the first event for the entire student community of the nine Unite! partner universities.

For three days, the University of Lisbon experienced a special moment with the presence of two hundred students from the nine Unite! partner universities, who gathered in the Unite! Student Festival, in what was the first alliance event, by students, for students.

Stiftung gibt Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe

Die Hamburger E.W. Kuhlmann-Stiftung fördert die TU Darmstadt mit 100.000 Euro. Das Geld soll für die Unterstützung Studierender eingesetzt werden – in Form von 20 Deutschlandstipendien, aber auch als zinslose Kredite, damit Studierende ihr Studium erfolgreich abschließen können. Hinter der Stiftung stehen der 93-jährige Edmund Kuhlmann und seine Frau Edith, die mit ihrem Vermögen jungen Menschen zu einem guten Start ins Berufsleben verhelfen wollen.

The sustainable biologisation of technical products, production processes and materials is one of society's mammoth tasks. The demand in industry and business for excellent engineers with creative skills and scientific know-how is enormous. In the new Bachelor's degree programme Bio-Materials Engineering, the Department of Mechanical Engineering supplements the classical contents of mechanical engineering with chemistry, biology and material sciences. Graduates will thus bring a completely new set of competencies to the engineering sciences. What else distinguishes the new degree program and who is it addressed to? The study coordinators Professor Andreas Blaeser and Professor Samuel Schabel about the new degree program.

Robots are supposed to make more tasks easier for humans in the future. But how can we get them to independently master new tasks and cooperate with us? With the new Master's program Autonomous Systems and Robotics with German as language of instruction, the Department of Computer Science combines modern computer science methods with knowledge from classical engineering education. Through close cooperation with other relevant departments at the TU, the program offers a particularly diverse range of courses. What exactly awaits the students and what job opportunities do the graduates have? Professor Jan Peters from the Department of Computer Science provides answers about the new degree program.

It is finally time to announce the winners of the student video contest. Launched by the Multilingual & Multicultural Training Centre (M&M), this contest aimed at showing the cultural diversity that defines Unite!

27 students participated in the student video contest and shared their daily student life with the whole Unite! community. Last week, all videos were uploaded on Unite!'s Metacampus so that all the students from the alliance could vote for their favourite video. Voting is now closed and we count seven winners. The winning videos will be used for pedagogical and dissemination purposes within the alliance and the winning students will be invited to the Unite! Student Festival in Lisbon, from June 29 to July 1st.
