The main objective of the project is to internationalise and improve the quality of education at the Doctoral School of the Opole University of Technology by supporting doctoral students in conducting research and development work at an international level.
To this end, activities will be carried out in the direction of, among other things, increasing the international mobility of doctoral students and strengthening international scientific cooperation by implementing the following activities:
1) preparation of a Joint PhD degree with PCU Rio from Brazil in two scientific disciplines;
2) organisation of an Interdisciplinary International Summer School;
3) organisation of workshops for supervisors to broaden their competences in the field of international standards of scientific supervision of doctoral students;
4) organisation of foreign internships for doctoral students;
5) large-scale promotion and invitation of candidates from abroad to take up doctoral studies at the Opole University of Technology.
The priority of the project related to the first measure is to develop a unique cooperation in the area of doctoral education with one of the fastest growing economies in the world - Brazil. To this end, it is planned to take legal steps to implement joint degrees and to sign an agreement with the preparation of the documentation necessary to launch the course. Information and promotional materials on education at the PO Doctoral School will be translated into English, Spanish and Portuguese.
The expected result of all the above-mentioned activities will be the internationalisation of the doctoral school existing at the Opole University of Technology since 2019. The long-term result is expected to be the establishment of lasting cooperation of the OUTech Doctoral School with foreign scientific institutions, especially from South America in the field of doctoral student's mobility. The mobilities will open opportunities for both- current and future- doctoral students for international scientific development and increasing the recognition of Poland in the international scientific arena.
