Collegio futuro is a program of universities associated in 4EU+, aimed at PhD students. He is now announcing the next year of the course for PhD students. Its goal is to teach students interdisciplinary, international cooperation in the field of sustainability and to support the ability to communicate their results outside the academic community, especially towards political representations and the decision-making sphere.

1) 4EU+ Joint Courses (category 1) – courses created within the framework of 4EU+ alliance cooperation, e.g. edu projects, which can be offered to all students of the 4EU+ Alliance - POVIM support cannot be applied for;

2) 4EU+ Shared Courses (category 2) – courses meeting the conditions of 4EU+, belonging to the flagship, fulfilling key competences, offered to all students of the 4EU+ Alliance - POVIM support can be applied for;

3) Open Courses (category 3) – courses open outside the 4EU+ Alliance, i.e. they do not have to meet the condition of belonging to flagships and fulfilling key competences, will be offered to students of all partner universities. - you can apply for POVIM support.
