Strong Student Participation at the EULiST Information Event held at NTUA

03/03/2026

A highly successful student-led Information Event on the EULiST Alliance was recently held at NTUA, showcasing the wide range of opportunities available to students in terms of mobility, engagement, and academic development.

Event Highlights

The agenda focused on:

Providing a clear and accessible overview of the EULiST Alliance, its structure, and the participating countries and universities.
Presenting the active role of students through the EULiST Student Board, as well as their involvement in Work Packages (WPs) and Task Groups, such as Task Group 1.2 “Student Engagement”.
Sharing personal experiences from students who have taken part in EULiST activities.
Presenting short-term mobility opportunities through Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs).
Promoting the upcoming Student Conference 2026.
Showcasing the Digital Campus, including a live demonstration of the Course Catalogue and the AI tools available within the platform.

First-Hand Experiences

Particularly engaging were the short presentations delivered by students who had previously participated in BIPs and in one of the past Student Conferences. Through their testimonials, they highlighted:

the academic and intercultural experience they gained,
the opportunity to network with students and academics from across Europe,
the meaningful role students can play in shaping the Alliance’s activities.

Strong Interest in Active Engagement

During the discussion, many students expressed their interest in joining the local EULiST team as volunteers. Plans are already being considered for the organisation of an ΟPEN DAY to further inform and welcome new members.

The event clearly demonstrated the growing momentum around EULiST and confirmed the increasing interest of the student community in international collaboration, mobility opportunities, and active participation in shaping the European University of the future.

EULiST BIP “Mathematical Modelling for natural disasters”

03/03/2026 Date: 6 -10 July 2026

The Department of Information Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics of the University of L’Aquila is organizing the BIP “Mathematical Modelling for natural disasters”, in cooperation with National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV), Gran Sasso Science Institute (GSSI), Leibniz Universität Hannover (LUH), Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (URJC) and the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA).

The programme will take place with online sessions in the week 15 – 19 of June 2026, and in-person activities from July 6 to July 10, 2026, in L’Aquila.

Type of participants/Target group: 1°, 2°, 3° cycle students, in the areas of Partial differential equations, Mathematical modelling, High-Performance Computing, Artificial Intelligence.

Objectives and description: The program will revolve around applied mathematics viewed as an interdisciplinary area at the interface with engineering, physics, geology with this main subject: Modelling Natural Disasters based on the study of stochastic and elastodynamics equations for earthquake dynamics , mathematical models for natural disasters (fire, landslides, climate changes etc.) and on the study of reaction-diffusion-aggregation equations and conservation laws. Suitable Artificial Intelligence and High Performance Computing techniques will be introduced in the BIP. Students selected for the program will acquire skills in: mathematical modeling for natural disasters, numerical simulation and data analysis using parallel computing and artificial intelligence techniques.

Number of ECTS: 3

Language of instruction: English, B2 level requested.

Application, deadline and nomination procedure:

Interested students should contact their university’s Erasmus office and EULiST local coordinator for more institution-specific information such as different application deadlines due to internal procedures. The selections will be carried out by the students’ home institutions.

EULiST BIP “Blade Design for Turbomachinery” organised by TU Wien

03/03/2026 Date: 16–22 June 2026

TU Wien, in cooperation with Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, Brno University of Technology, University of Belgrade and Budapest University of Technology and Economics, is organising a Blended Intensive Program (BIP) entitled “Blade Design for Turbomachinery”. The programme includes online sessions in April, May and June 2026, followed by in-person activities from June 16 to June 22, 2026, in Vienna, Austria.

Type of participants / Target group:
Students at Master level (2^nd cycle) in Engineering (ISCED: 0710)

Objectives and description:

The aim of this course is that the successful student can design and optimize a turbomachinery blade for a given application.

The course is divided into three components: initial blade design based on empirical models, blade optimisation using fluid dynamic simulations, and experimental validation. Therefore, the course covers various blade shape design strategies, including their implications for turbomachinery performance. The initial blade shape is then optimised using numerical flow simulations, where a parametric optimisation is likely performed by the students. The best-performing blade shape is the materialised using a 3D printer and tested in a wind tunnel. Thereby, the course provides the students with holistic and practical skills in turbomachinery design.

While the described component is performed in-person by the students in small groups, the theory and the summarising protocol are established in the virtual components of this course..

Number of ECTS: 4

Language of instruction: English

Application, deadline and nomination procedure:
Interested students should contact their university’s Erasmus office and EULiST local coordinator for more institution-specific information such as different application deadlines due to internal procedures. The selections will be carried out by the students’ home institutions.
