Dear students,

The ‘Higher Education Leadership Forum’ (HELF), organised at the University of Sheffield in September 2018, will be celebrated. The call for presentations is currently open, with a deadline of the 31st January. HELF is relevant for anyone with an interest in leadership in HE – including leadership development practitioners, academics and senior leaders.

The inaugural Higher Education Leadership Forum was held at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, in April 2017. It was established following five years of close partnership working between Carleton and Sheffield universities in the field of leadership development. The forum was founded to;

• promote the sharing of good practice around developing leaders within HE beyond our 2 universities
• to provide access to the best in the field internationally so that we could learn from them, and to
• promote the international reputation of the University of Sheffield.

More information can be found on the attached leaflet and also on the website.

Why Green Challenge?

DTU believes that engineers play a pivotal role in the sustainable development of our society.

Dear All,

Our colleagues from Poznan have the pleasure of inviting us to participate in the 1st International Science Conference “COMPETENCES IN THE AGE OF A SMART WORLD” dedicated to broadly defined competences for the future. The conference, organized by the Chair of Marketing and Economic Engineering of PUT Faculty of Engineering Management, will be held on 13 March 2018 in Poznan. The aim of the conference is to integrate the academic community which deals with learning organizations as well as to present and discuss issues related to shaping competences for the future in these organizations. Plenary session speakers will include scholars from countries such as the USA, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland, to name but a few, who will share their research results and conclusions. The conference will be attended by representatives of academic centres from Poland and abroad as well as business practitioners.

Due to the specific character of the subject matter, the conference will be part of a larger event called International Days of Competences for the Future, which will feature among others:

– a special guest lecture by Prof. G. Scott Erickson – Professor of Marketing, Ithaca College, School of Business, Ithaca, New York, USA;

– academic sessions devoted to the subjects of knowledge management, competence management in learning organizations, intelligent organizations, a smart factory, quality in the context of competence and knowledge management, methods for accelerating the acquisition of selected transversal competences, leadership, process automation in public institutions, private institutions and enterprises, including Industry 4.0.

More information on International Days of Competences for the Future can be found on www.idcf.put.poznan.pl

Take into account this amazing oportunity.

The ETH Zürich University wishes all students a merry Christmas and as a gift informs us that the Swiss national agency Movetia has just announced that the scholarships in the Swiss-European Mobility Programme will be slightly increased as of the academic year 2018/19, by CHF 20/month, i.e. CHF 100/semester.

Also, the country categories have been adjusted, mirroring the changes made in the Erasmus programme, so for students from some of our partners the scholarship will also be changed (in most cases increased) due to this.

You can find the overview in English version published on the website. Scholarships will continue to be calculated with 5 monthly rates per semester, independent of the exact duration of stay.

Don’t forget to check out ETH Zurich’s new promotional video linked on (make sure the sound is turned on high 😉
