Summary of a study visit in Amsterdam
How does the Dutch government support universities in promoting the emotional health of students? What wellbeing initiatives are undertaken by students themselves? These and many other questions were asked by the International Relations Office during the study visit in Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam on 7-9 February.
In mid-September 2022, the International Relations Office at Gdańsk University of Technology launched a project named „Hey, are you ok?”. The main objective of the project is to support the emotional health of students and staff. The tasks within the project include study visits at European universities that offer wellbeing programs.
EUA-IEP follow-up evaluation process at Gdańsk University of Technology
Gdańsk University of Technology once again expressed its willingness to confirm its competences within the framework of 'European University Association - Institutional Evaluation Programme' (EUA-IEP).
In September 2018, Gdańsk University of Technology received the right to use the EUA-IEP distinction. After 5 years, we applied for follow-up evaluation. A self-evaluation report has been prepared, and on March 20-24, 2023, the IEP team will visit Gdańsk University of Technology.

Open Access and open licences
Creative Commons licenses are the most widely used copyright licenses for Open Access publications and have become an integral part of the publishing process in the wake of the Open Science movement. As a researcher, you will often find yourself in situations, where you must choose between several Creative Commons licenses when your manuscript is accepted for publication in an Open Access journal. Choosing a license requires knowledge of what distinguishes the individual licenses from each other.
Researcher ID and digital strategy: creating a real ORCID ID to be visible
A researcher identifier is a unique and permanent sequence of numbers and/or letters that unambiguously identifies a researcher. It gives the researcher a better visibility, allows to list his publications and to distinguish him from possible homonyms. This training session will present various researcher identifiers, highlighting their differences. The participants will then create an ORCID identifier with the help of the trainers. ORCID is an international researcher identifier, recommended by research funders and many journals.
The FAIR principles in science, technology and engineering – how to write a good Data Management Plan for fair research data
In recent years, the so-called FAIR principles have become the gold standard for research data and are now at the core of policies from universities, funders and publishers. In this session, we will present how to write a Data Management Plan (DMP) that will help to make research data FAIR – that means Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable. We will present examples from the natural, technical and life sciences.
