Course objectives

The aim of the course is to expand and supplement the student's professional knowledge in confrontation with the professional environment and practice. This confrontation is not limited by topic, it depends on the student's choice in which area he/she wants to specialize. In the case of a non-disciplinary conference, it is necessary to demonstrate application to the field in which the course is included.

The subject is also suitable for long-distance students, it depends on the student's choice of which conference to attend.
All costs for the conference are covered by the student himself.

Learning outcomes

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to: - describe current topics in their area of interest; - identify experts on topics in their area of interest; - summarize the content from the event into an information artifact.
