Open Lab Hours

Open Lab Hours

Open Lab Hour (OLH) is a short training on research topics provided by an intra-alliance team of mentors. Taking place over a span of 5 days, it is designed for undergraduate and post-graduate master students of EU-CONEXUS universities with a keen interest in exploring research avenues related to Smart Urban Coastal Sustainability (SMUCS).

During OLH, students have a unique opportunity to acquire essential competencies from different partners within the alliance. It takes place in a hybrid format, combining simultaneously:

  • On-site training sessions provided by the home University focus on advanced instrumentation and collection of specimens or data required for each scientific field;
  • Remote training sessions feature literature search, implementation of advanced and specialized software, surveys, research methods, research conduct and ethics, environmental issues, improvement of scientific writing skills, and preparation for participation in international competitions.
