CLUVEX Virtual Exchange Week (1 ECTS)

The Climate University for Virtual Exchanges (CLUVEX) is an international, multidisciplinary online course that explores and discusses the latest scientific knowledge on climate change from multiple perspectives, including the natural sciences, social sciences, and the arts.

This virtual exchange offers an excellent opportunity to engage in an international environment, particularly for those considering a traditional student exchange. Participation in the VE Week does not require an advanced background in the natural sciences. What matters most is an interest in climate change-related issues and a willingness to collaborate in an international team. The VE Week is open to students from all academic disciplines across EU and EU Neighbourhood countries.

During the virtual exchange, you will work in small international groups of like-minded students (10 students plus one moderator). A key component of the program is the Climate Horizon exercise, which is framed by interdisciplinary and intercultural discussions on climate change. You will engage with the exercise both individually and collaboratively within your group.
