FROM FASHION TO OPEN DATA: WHAT LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES ARE THERE?
As a result of the Lodz University of Technology's membership in the European Consortium of Innovative Universities, free educational offers prepared by 13 universities from all over Europe await our students. At ECIU University, we offer two kinds of learning opportunities: challenges and micro-modules.
For challenges, we pick real-life problems that communities are struggling with – and engage diverse teams of learners to come up with a possible solution by working closely with international businesses, organizations, and local communities.
Micro-modules are short courses aimed at helping students improve their skills, fill their knowledge gaps, and broaden their perspectives on various subjects – from urban data analytics to gender studies.
Currently, students can apply to more than 30 upcoming learning opportunities. You can discover challenges and micro-modules on our engage.eciu platform.
Just sign up at the engage.eciu platform, browse through the learning opportunities and apply to the ones that excite your interest. Possibilities are endless – you only choose the impact you want to make!
Why participate?
Make a real impact
The ECIU University learning opportunities are developed around certain thematic topics and actual problems that communities and organisations face at this very moment. You gain first-hand experience and the possibility to contribute to real societal change.
Acquire practical skills
Develop your problem-solving, critical thinking, communication, planning, collaboration and teamwork skills or learn a language and develop your intercultural skills.
Transform ideas into reality
CBL is a learner-driven method, where you take ownership of the challenge, define the problems you want to work on, and acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to solve the challenge. You and your team engage in the problem, investigate the situation and develop a fitting solution.
Collaborate with businesses, companies and organisations
Grow your network of connections and work with representatives of business companies, public organisations or NGOs from different backgrounds along with other learners, teachers and experts.
Gain international experience
The possibility to study at different European universities. Go on a short-term exchange, meet up for a few days or participate online.
Earn recognition
After successful completion of a learning outcome, an ECIU certificate or digital credential is awarded to you. There is always the possibility to receive a transcript of records or a diploma supplement if necessary.
