EPICUR Research Agenda - Shaping European Society in Transition

Descripción del proyecto

Formas innovadoras de abordar EPIChallenges

La alianza de Universidades Europeas EPICUR conformará la sociedad europea en transición desarrollando formatos de enseñanza y aprendizaje colaborativos inter y transdisciplinarios. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos EPICUR-Research amplía las áreas de interés de la alianza hacia la investigación, la innovación y la interacción con la sociedad. Desarrolla una agenda de investigación conjunta para abordar cuestiones apremiantes de investigación como la sostenibilidad, la movilidad, la migración, la identidad y la transición del sistema sanitario público, es decir los llamados EPIChallenges. El proyecto se dirige principalmente a los investigadores noveles y los invita a crear de manera conjunta la nueva EPICommunity en línea, que ofrecerá herramientas para aumentar la visibilidad de los logros científicos. El proyecto los anima a establecer y unir EPIClusters temáticos interdisciplinarios que tengan como objetivo abordar los EPIChallenges con socios de fuera del mundo académico y garantizar así una perspectiva transdisciplinaria de las actividades de investigación.

Objetivo

EPICUR, the European Partnership for an Innovative Campus Unifying Regions, is a first-generation European University Alliance, dedicated to shaping European Society in Transition through the development of collaborative inter- and transdisciplinary teaching and learning. Now that the alliance seeks funding to establish its complementary research agenda, EPICUR expands its breadth to include research, innovation and interaction with society, and will be addressing all four corners of the European knowledge square. EPICUR is convinced that future EPICUR research can make a difference in the following ways:

As our alliance believes that international collaboration fosters scientific and societal progress, EPICUR will develop a joint research agenda and deploy an inter- and transdisciplinary approach to tackle pressing research questions, which we call EPIChallenges (WP1).

EPICUR identified early career researchers as the primary target group to experiment with new formats for virtual networking and shaping their academic careers. They will be invited to co-create the EPICommunity, a new social media network based on an attractive gamification design. This network offers new tools that will help raise the visibility of scientific achievements and skill sets, as well as facilitating blended mobility (WP2).

EPICUR researchers will be encouraged to team-up in EPIClusters, experimental open research formats to tackle EPIChallenges together with partners from sectors outside academia and to pilot the sharing of the consortium's cutting-edge research infrastructures (WP3).

As proud member of the first cohort of European Universities alliances, EPICUR will build intelligent connections to our peer alliances in EPIConnect, to facilitate the preparation of joint policy recommendations for shaping the Universities of the Future.

As a result, EPICUR will contribute to the further shaping the European Universities - be EPIcurious!
