We are pleased to announce that the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation has approved the implementation of ten student projects.
Projects under the public call "Problem-Based Learning for Students in the Work Environment 2024–2027" (2nd opening: 2025/2026) were submitted by mentors at Alma Mater Europaea University. The call is co-financed by the European Union from the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+).
Of the ten selected projects, eight will be carried out at Alma Mater Europaea University, and two at Alma Mater Europaea – Academy of Dance. This is a significant achievement of our mentors and students, who, with each call period, demonstrate excellence, innovativeness, and the high quality of project proposals.
Strengthening students' practical experience and employability
The implementation of the selected projects in 2026 will enable a larger number of students to engage in concrete project activities, in which they will be able to develop:
- practical experience and professional knowledge,
- digital competencies,
- entrepreneurship and innovativeness,
- creativity and critical thinking.
Linking with industry and the wider society
In doing so, they will acquire valuable vocational and professional competencies that are essential for a successful transition to the labor market and lifelong learning.
- transfer of knowledge into practice,
- development of interdisciplinary approaches,
- long-term cooperation with partners from different settings,
- openness and innovativeness of the higher education sector, in line with the objectives of the European cohesion policy 2021–2027.
Key objectives of the projects
- Systematic introduction of knowledge transfer between higher education institutions and the world of work,
- increasing flexibility and better alignment of study programs with labor market needs,
- and establishing long-term partnerships to integrate students into real work processes meaningfully.
Student projects can be carried out for up to five months and must be completed by 31 August 2026.
Start of forming project teams
In the coming weeks, mentors, together with the project office, will begin preparing all the necessary administrative procedures and forming student project teams. We look forward to a creative, productive, and successful implementation of all approved projects.
Congratulations to all mentors on the successful submission of applications, and we look forward to excellent results that will benefit both students and the wider community.
Promoting practical learning for the employability of young people
At Alma Mater Europaea University, we actively support projects that enable students to gain practical experience and professional competencies. Through collaboration with the world of work, we build a bridge between theory and practice and enable students to integrate meaningfully into real professional challenges.
