In today’s rapidly evolving research landscape, innovative ideas alone are often insufficient for success; researchers also require the appropriate skills, networks, and institutional support. In response to this need, the UNITE! Widening Training Series provides a comprehensive, international learning programme designed to strengthen the capabilities of researchers at all career stages.

Unite.WIDENING is leveling the playing field for European innovation. We are ensuring that talent in Poland and Portugal leads, rather than just joins, the continent’s most ambitious research projects. Following recent recognition from CORDIS, our project is accelerating its impact through a combination of specialized training series, deep industry integration, and innovative digital hubs like the AGORA platform.

Wrocław University of Science and Technology, in cooperation with Universidade de Lisboa, is pleased to announce the launch of the call for applications for the Industry-Embedded Doctoral School, an initiative within the framework of the Unite.WIDENING project.

We would like to invite staff and faculty from all Unite! partner universities to participate as trainers, lecturers, and mentors to design the Widening Training Series for Researchers. Join us in shaping a practical, hands-on programme that not only enhances their skills but also builds concrete collaborations and long-term cooperation within the alliance.

The University of Lisbon (ULisboa) has long stood as Portugal’s largest and most prestigious university. Today, it stands for much more: it is the most entrepreneurial university in the country, shaping not only Portugal’s innovation landscape but influencing Europe’s broader knowledge economy.
