What does it take to become a confident researcher in an increasingly interconnected academic world? The Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) “Rising Voices: Emerging Scholars Forum” invites Master’s and PhD students from across the Aurora Alliance to strengthen their research voice, connect across disciplines, and develop essential academic communication skills.
This one-week international programme brings together 20 selected emerging scholars for an intensive experience of collaboration, exchange, and professional development. Through interactive workshops, interdisciplinary discussions, networking opportunities, and a 3-Minute Thesis (3MT) competition, participants will learn how to communicate their research effectively, engage with diverse academic perspectives, and build international connections.
