Arqus at the European Researchers’ Night in Granada and Minho!

When and Where: September 26th, 17:30 (UTC+1) at Fórum Braga (Portugal)

On 26th September, at 17:30, Portugal time (UTC+1), at Fórum Braga (Portugal), the Arqus Experience session will take place as part of European Researchers’ Night 2025. The session aims to present the Arqus alliance to the public through the experiences of three team members: a professor, a student, and an administrative staff member.

Aware of the importance of universities and science in society, European alliances such as Arqus are fundamental in responding to global challenges such as the education of European citizens, the promotion of a multicultural, multilingual, inclusive, and open-minded Europe, the development of new joint programmes and study cycles, as well as the promotion of student and staff mobility between member universities.

In a conversation lasting around 30 minutes, the three participants will talk about their experiences within Arqus, from the mobility application procedure to the actual mobility itself.

Arqus will also participate in the event with a stand where participants can ask questions to Arqus staff and find alliance merchandise. More information here.

When and Where: September 26th, Paseo del Salón.

Arqus will host a range of activities throughout the day, including workshops, scientific demonstrations, and interactive games for both students and the general public.

During the activities, Arqus Granada will have info about the Arqus Alliance in the stands with interactive elements like maps, posters, etc. Along with this, those students who are part of the University of Granada will be invited to join the Arqus Granada
