Students from across Arqus are invited to take part in a five-day international workshop programme exploring research, collaboration and academic development in an intercultural environment.
The University of Wrocław will host ‘United in Curiosity: International Student Workshop Week’, taking place from 19 to 23 October 2026. The event is open to Bachelor’s, Master’s and long-cycle students from Arqus universities; English will be the working language and the event will be held on-site at the University of Wrocław. Designed for students interested in strengthening their academic potential, the programme offers a unique opportunity to explore how curiosity and engagement with research can shape academic and professional pathways. Through interactive workshops, discussions and collaborative activities, participants will work together in an interdisciplinary and international setting, exchanging perspectives and experiences with peers from across the Arqus community.
Throughout the week, students will reflect on how scientific interests develop in different countries and institutions, discover diverse approaches to student research engagement, and explore how research-related activities can contribute to their future careers.
