IN-BETWEEN – Constant Change is in the Focus of This Year’s MIK PARTNERS Professional Day
Everything in
our world, our everyday life and scientific activity, is in a state of
transition. ChatGPT is here with us, and monitoring scientific projects differs
markedly from what it was a few years ago. Our environment and climatic
conditions are undergoing constant changes. We are witnessing a different
attitude; we are in need of a much more economical and sustainable approach
towards our resources. So, what can science, the economy, and businesses do in
these transitional times?
This question is
the focus of this year’s MIK PARTNERS Professional Day of the Faculty of
Engineering and Information Technology of the University of Pécs (UP FEIT), as
the concept of ‘IN-BETWEEN’ has been chosen as the event’s motto.
Launched in 2018, the event is aiming to provide an annual opportunity to
present the broad range of educational, research, development, and innovation
achievements resulting from our partnership collaborations. In addition to the
professional programme, we also seek to support the building and nurturing of
relationships within our partner network.
Kashitu school competition
INSPIRELI Kashitu architectural competition calls for innovative student designs of the buildings in the Kashitu Secondary School Campus which would push both architectural and technical boundaries of the current design of a typical Zambian school
Zahrádky castle competition
The goal of the competition is to transform the premises of the castle into spaces that the university, in cooperation with the municipality of Zahrádky and the Liberec region, could use as a conference center, including accommodation facilities, a municipality information center and a center for leisure activities. In other buildings (especially the orangery, and the farmhouse), we expect to place a cafe or a small restaurant.
The announcer of the competition is the Charles University.
