Gwendydd Piret, PhD student at the University of Mons talks about her REUNICE fellowship and her doctoral research topic.<\/em><\/h4>\n

Let me start by telling you about my academic and professional background. Originally, I oriented my studies towards Mathematics Teaching. Having obtained my bachelor\u2019s degree, I started a master\u2019s degree in educational sciences<\/strong>. During my master\u2019s degree, I worked in the educational engineering and digital education department for two and a half years. When I graduated, I was still working for this department at the University of UMONS and I had also started teaching in a lifelong learning organization (\u00e9cole de promotion sociale)<\/strong>, which I still do today. I also have experience in teaching students with specific needs.<\/p>\n

Thesis in pedagogical sciences and andragogy<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Since September 2022, I have been working on a thesis in pedagogical sciences and andragogy<\/strong> and I still teach in the lifelong learning organization. For those of you who don\u2019t know, andragogy is the science of teaching adults. This thesis, due in 4 years, is partially funded by REUNICE, a H2020 program for the European Universities Alliance EUNICE<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As I said, my research topic is the social inclusion dimension of higher education in Europe<\/strong>. In practice, I am interested in the measures, support services etc. that have been put in place to facilitate inclusion in several European universities and in 3 higher education structures in Mons. I am also interested in how students perceive support services, whether they use them, what obstacles they encounter<\/strong> etc. in order to highlight shortcomings and non-performances.<\/p>\n

At the moment, I\u2019m doing a radioscopy through a survey directed to the seven universities involved in REUNICE: Politechnika Pozna\u0144ska<\/a><\/span> (Poland); Brandenburgische Technische Universitat Cottbus-Senftenberg<\/a><\/span> (Germany); Universidad de Cantabria<\/a><\/span> (Spain); Universit\u00e9 de Mons<\/a><\/span> (Belgium); Universit\u00e0 di Catania<\/a><\/span> (Italy); Universit\u00e9 Polytechnique Hauts-de-France<\/a><\/span> (France) and Vaasan Yliopisto<\/a><\/span> (Finland). These radioscopies will be helpful to provide an overview of the measures implemented to foster inclusion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On a personal note, this thesis is my contribution to the improvement of access and participation for all in higher education institutions. I hope it will contribute to great advances in the field of teachers training<\/strong>, especially in Belgium, where teachers training is currently being reformed and where I wish to find my place as a teacher.<\/p>\n

European Higher Education Area<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The social dimension in higher education is one of the top priorities of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA)<\/strong>. One of the aims of EHEA is to widen overall access and increase participation and completion of under-represented groups in higher education, according to the diversity of the national populations. European universities are one of EHEA’s initiatives to promote inclusion<\/strong>. EUNICE is one of these European universities: E<\/strong>uropean Uni<\/strong>versity for C<\/strong>ustomised E<\/strong>ducation and through its supporting project (REUNICE), it aims to develop a common research and innovation agenda and an action plan to overcome societal challenges. That\u2019s one of the reasons why REUNICE funds part of my doctoral research.<\/p>\n
