The Pre-Doctoral Research Bridging Course Programme Science Fair took place on 17th of November, at the Conference Hall of the Alexandre Lamfalussy Faculty of Economics. The event had hosted more than 40 participants – 11 presenters, more than 25 Pre-Doctoral and PhD students, plus the consultants and faculty coordinators working on this special, two-month programme.
The doctoral schools of the Faculty of Forestry, Faculty of Wood Engineering and Creative Industries, Faculty of Economics and the Forest Research Institute were all represented, both by presenters and by attendees.
We also had the honour to welcome the partner organisers of the University of Sopron in the Pre-Doctoral Research Bridging Course Programme: Representatives of the Indonesian Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology and Representatives of the Indonesian Embassy in Hungary.
The Science Fair was open not only for those participating in the Pre-Doctoral Bridging Course Programme, but all international PhD students of the three doctoral schools of the University of Sopron; many of them took the opportunity.
The program consisted of two plenary sessions, both had informative and interesting scientific presentations from the fields of Forestry, Wood Engineering and Economics; accompanied by Q&A sessions, lunch and coffee breaks in between to encourage further, less formal conversations on the topics presented.
The last momentum was handing out the certificates to the 8 students, who are close to finishing the Pre-Doctoral Research Bridging Course Programme for successfully completing the scientific and professional assessments in the course of the supervised period. We were glad to have Anis Apriliawati Human Resource Officer the Indonesian Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology – who had joined online – making a short speech enhancing the solemnity of the occasion.
The Pre-Doctoral Research Bridging Course Programme Science Fair was a truly successful event and a unique opportunity for scientific discussions and networking via the University of Sopron.
