Erasmus+: Welcome Event for International Students

Erasmus 2026
On 30 September, we held an inauguration meeting for students coming to our Faculty through the Erasmus+ programme. This year we are hosting more than 80 students from partner universities in Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Kyrgyzstan, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Turkey and Ukraine. A similar number of our own students have gone abroad this year on exchanges to partner universities across Europe.

The Erasmus+ programme supports the international mobility of students and staff. It allows participants to gain knowledge and experience in a different academic environment, learn about other cultures, and develop language and social skills. Today, international exchange is much more than a traditional semester of study abroad.

EDC
On 29 September 2026, the Faculty of Management and Economics at Gdańsk Techn will host the "Digital Skills for European Citizens" conference, organised as part of the European project Europe 4.0 Digital Citizens. The event is addressed to everyone who wants to develop their digital skills or support others in doing so – regardless of educational background or technical experience.

Artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, the Internet of Things, quantum computing – these concepts increasingly appear in both professional and everyday life, yet they are still mostly associated with the world of IT specialists. The Europe 4.0 Digital Citizens project was created to change that. Its goal is to make emerging technologies understandable and accessible to everyone, including people without a technical background.
