The INVITE Researchers’ experience at the University of Verona

On 22 September 2022 from 10.00 a.m. to 1.00 p.m. at Aula Magna (Silos di Ponente) of Polo Santa Marta in Verona, the final event of the INVITE project will take place, entitled "The INVITE Researchers’ experience at the University of Verona".

INVITE (Innovative Verona university's inter-disciplinary, inter-sectoral and international training experience) is a project funded for more than EUR 1 million by the European Commission within the MSCA- COFUND- 2016 call of the European Horizon 2020 Programme and co-funded by the Region of Veneto and the University of Verona.

INVITE enabled the recruitment of 14 PhD students from all over the world, who carried out their doctoral studies at the University of Verona with periods spent abroad to complete their research training. In addition to the specific doctoral training, INVITE offered a complementary programme of meta-disciplinary training aimed at developing and strengthening the cross-cutting skills of INVITE doctoral students and a specific training programme of 'coaching, counselling and vocational training' aimed at making them reflect on their own professional profile, skills and resources, in order to optimise all job opportunities after their doctorate and develop a concrete action plan for the future, both within the university world and in the public and private sectors.

INVITE project has made it possible to train a new generation of researchers in a wide range of scientific disciplines and provide them with the ability to establish professional collaborations with academic institutions and the private sector at Italian and European level, also with a view to strengthening the university's ability to host talented international researchers in a high-quality working environment.

The closing event of INVITE project will illustrate the results achieved and will be an opportunity for discussion with INVITE PhD students, who will talk about their experience within the project.
