The U!Train Blended Intensive Programme is an exciting Unite! course, scheduled to depart on September 1, 2024.
In this Programme, 30 students will embark on a unique journey, starting with a train journey from their various institutions to UPC Barcelona and continuing on, all together, to Grenoble INP.
Along the way, students will engage in various non-academic activities. Upon reaching their destination, they will continue with team-building exercises and, of course, academic work. But the journey begins even before departure, with approximately 6 hours of online classes the week prior, providing participants with essential knowledge and skills for the programme ahead.
What will participants learn?
Throughout the programme, participants will explore the themes of Green Mobility and intercultural competencies. Experts will lead discussions on topics such as urban walkability, sustainable transportation systems and innovations, corporate social responsibility, and cultural diversity.
What makes it enjoyable?
- Participants will forge connections with students from the 9 Unite! universities and gain hands-on insights into European travel;
- Participants will enjoy unique cultural experiences in Barcelona and Grenoble;
- The selected participants will benefit from financial support through the Erasmus mobility grant and receive a complimentary Interrail pass, to travel to UPC, Grenoble and back to their cities.
The programme is worth 3 credits (ECTS).
Please note: Individual applicants should check with their home university to ensure the specified ECTS are recognised towards their degree programme.
