PhoQuS (co)organized events

The essential part of realization of the PhoQuS project is organization of a number of research, popular and business oriented events, which will  foster exchange of scientific ideas between researchers from the Faculty and the international community, promote research achievements of the Faculty among the general public and facilitate the transfer of best practice and know-how in innovation and technology transfer.

Research events

Over 80 outgoing and incoming research missions to and from the 13 project partners as well as a number of conferences, workshops and symposia be supported by the PhoQuS project:

Popular events

Lectures, workshops and seminars for high school students will be organized with the aim to encourage science careers, especially among most talented candidates and a number of events popularizing science are to be supported:

Innovation events.

Annual “Open days” will be organized for the industry community. On site visits and sightseeing of thelaboratories will help to establish closer and deeper cooperation between science and industry. 2 workshops targeting at business partners will aim at informing the industry about the research capabilities, results and technology solution developed in the faculty and gauging the expectations of the industry with respect to the research topics that would be welcome by the business.
