Poznan University of Technology (Poland) hosted a visit from Professor Lidia Sánchez, Reunice Project Director at University of Cantabria (UC, Spain) and Transversal Training Coordinator of UC’s Doctoral School in order to meet with the Management and Administration Area of PUT’s Doctoral School. This activity took place as part of the INPUTDoc project and was co-financed by the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA) within the Internationalisation of doctoral schools STER Programme.

The agenda discussed key topics related to activities of the Doctoral School, recruitment and education conditions, education programmes and quality of education, among others. These discussions also concerned further possibilities of cooperation towards internationalisation.

Apart form the Doctoral area, meetings were also held with employees of the European University Department and representatives of the Faculty of Engineering Management at Poznan University of Technology: Prof. Agnieszka Stachowiak, Vice-Dean for Science, together with Prof. Eng. Joanna Kałkowska, Director of the Institute of Management and Information Systems.
