UNITA

The Teaching and Learning Center at UniTo is organizing an international conference aimed at exploring educational innovation from the perspective of Undergraduate Research. Undergraduate Research (UR) is an innovative educational approach used in university education. It involves a formative experience that includes guided and creative research activities carried out directly by students under the supervision of professors and researchers. UR contributes to the development of transversal skills, promotes the creation of mentoring communities between professors and students, and fosters academic success (Mieg and Deicke, 2022). Additionally, the conference aims to explore the potential of Research-Based Learning (RBL) and Team-Based Learning (TBL), delving into educational models, implementation strategies, and their impact in university contexts based on the experiences of professors and international experts. The conference will be held exclusively in person at the Interdepartmental Centre for Molecular Biotechnology “Guido Tarone” (MBC) in Via Nizza 52, Turin. You can register until 5 September, or until all available places are filled. ✍️ submit at the conference! Participation is free of charge.

Join us for an online event presenting key findings from the DiEM project research on inclusive access and participation in Erasmus+ mobility. The event will highlight student perspectives, institutional practices, and national-level data through three main outputs: a research report, National Inclusion Monitor, and Guidelines for inclusive internationalisation supported by higher education institutions. By bringing together student, institutional, and policy perspectives, the event aims to foster a deeper and more informed dialogue on inclusion and support in international student mobility. Register HERE  by 19 September The full programme is available here.

The conference will present ECEM’s main findings and dive into the future of engaged mobility through discussions on civic engagement in Erasmus+, policy and practice exchanges, case-study presentations, and a collaborative fishbowl discussion on the future of Erasmus+. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage in parallel sessions exploring how to strengthen collaboration between higher education institutions, national agencies, and civil society. Register by 19 September The link for registration and the full programme is available here.  

Part of the EUniverse project, the conference will focus on supporting universities in improving how they welcome and support international students. The project encourages creating better, student-centred integration activities based on real student input. The consortium aims to help universities build stronger support systems that make students feel more connected and involved during their time abroad.
