On October 4th in Gdańsk, at the initiative of the Fahrenheit Universities, institutions of higher education from the Pomeranian region, together with local government authorities, will formally inaugurate the 2025/2026 academic year. The now-traditional academic procession will proceed along the Royal Route (Trakt Królewski), from the Golden Gate (Złota Brama) to the Artus Court (Dwór Artusa).

The vibrant parade—rich with symbols of academic tradition—will begin assembling near the Golden Gate at 10:30 a.m. Promptly at 11:00 a.m., the procession will set off along Długa Street toward Długi Targ and the Artus Court.

The parade will be accompanied by an array of artistic performances provided by the Gdańsk Academic Orchestra, as well as stilt walkers, jugglers, unicyclists, and performers in mirrored costumes—all of whom will contribute to the event’s visual and celebratory character.

Become a Mentor in the ENHANCE Cross-Border Mentoring Programme

Mentor programme
The programme supports early-career researchers in STEM fields through international, goal-oriented mentoring. This initiative promotes professional development, intercultural exchange, and cross-border collaboration. The programme is set to launch in October 2025, and the call for mentor applications is currently open.

Becoming a mentor is a unique opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with early-stage researchers who are just beginning their academic journey. Mentors are expected to support their mentees in developing research skills, career planning, and exploring various development pathways – both within academia and beyond. The programme is designed as a six-month mentoring cycle with an international reach, tailored to the mentee's goals, and includes monthly one-hour mentor–mentee meetings.
