Autumn Schools for master-level students
Registration open: Autumn Schools Programme
One aim of the ACC-Forum is to bring together master's students from the Euroregion Neisse in four topic-specific autumn schools to work on relevant transformation topics. Researchers from the ACC partner universities will run the autumn schools and provide current research results. On the basis of current research, the participating students will carry out project work, which will be presented to an expert audience during the planned scientific conference. In addition, local companies are given the platform to share their practical insights with the students in order to establish practical connections.
The evening programme is available now. Find it here.
Date of the autumn schools: 16.10. to 20.10.2023
Registration period: 01.04.2023 – 30.06.2023
