Interdisciplinary Scientific Seminar
The Interdisciplinary Scientific Seminar - a series of open meetings with world-famous speakers - is organised with a wide audience in mind - students, doctoral students, academic staff, and all those interested in deepening their knowledge of exact sciences. Every month, Wrocław University of Science and Technology will host an expert who will talk about the latest research in their field of science.
Every month, Wrocław University of Science and Technology hosts an expert who talks about the latest research in their field of science. We’re inviting both foreign and Polish researchers. These are really eminent personages, who don’t only boast important research but also can discuss it in an engrossing way.
In 2024, the Interdisciplinary Scientific Seminar (ISN) started to operate under the guidance and support of the Academia Europaea Wrocław Hub, one of Europe’s leading scholarly organizations. This affiliation allows ISN to benefit from the support and scholarly resources of one of Europe’s premier academic institutions and to connect with extensive network of experts across multiple disciplines, fostering collaborations and addressing some of today’s most pressing scientific challenges.
Academia Europaea, established in 1988, is an international association of leading scientists and scholars from all disciplines, recognized for their expertise by their peers. It operates as a not-for-profit organization and registered charity, aiming to promote European scholarship and research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and provide independent advice on academic and scientific matters. Through meetings, expert workshops, and collaboration, the Academia fosters high standards in research and education across Europe.
