Let’s Unite! – Join the fair and discover what the Unite! Alliance has to offer

Research internships, joint projects, online seminars, additional scholarships – these are just some of the exciting opportunities available through the Unite! alliance for students, doctoral candidates, and staff at Wrocław Tech. Unite!Widening, as integral part of the project participates in some of them.

On April 15, the Student Culture Zone at Wrocław Tech will host Let’s Unite! – an interactive event where the entire university community can discover the wide range of opportunities offered by the Unite! alliance.

What is Unite!?

Unite! is a European alliance of nine leading technical universities, created to design a forward-thinking 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)
  • Aalto University (Finland)

Together, these institutions represent over 280,000 students and tens of thousands of researchers and staff, backed by cutting-edge infrastructure and resources worth billions. As Prof. Renata Krzyżyńska, Rector’s Plenipotentiary for Unite!, emphasizes:

“Where there are resources, innovation thrives – and our alliance opens up new horizons for every member of the Wrocław Tech community.”

Widening Access to Global Science and Education

The Widening dimension of Unite! plays a key role in making these resources accessible to a broader group of students, researchers, and institutions, especially from countries and regions underrepresented in European science and innovation. As a part of the Unite! Widening initiative, Wrocław Tech is actively working to ensure inclusive participation in these international programs.

Whether you’re looking to take part in a research stay, join a collaborative project, or benefit from Unite! scholarships, the Let’s Unite! event is your chance to learn how to get involved.

Meet the People Behind the Programs

At the event, you’ll be able to speak directly with those involved in the Unite! network. From student-friendly programs to administrative collaborations and high-impact research partnerships – each visitor will find opportunities tailored to their role and interests.

Widening European Open Science and Innovation in Universities

The Unite! White Paper: A New University Open Science & Innovation Strategic Roadmap for Widening Countries (link) developed under the Unite!Widening project, outlines a set of research evidence based recommendations in the form of strategic objectives, tactical actions, and operational outcomes.

Empowering the Academic Community for Open Science: Training in Research Data Management and Open Science

Open Science is at the forefront of transforming research and higher education in Europe. By fostering transparency, accessibility, and collaboration, it paves the way for a more inclusive and innovative scientific landscape. Recognizing the crucial role of Research Data Management (RDM) in this transition, Unite!Widening actively supports specialized training programs, making the empowerment of the academic community a strategic priority.
