Connecting ideas and researchers

About our Research Talks

ERUNI Research Talks is an open platform for academic exchange across disciplines and career stages. As openness is one of ERUNI’s core values, the series encourages dialogue between researchers, educators, students, and invited scholars from a wide range of institutions.

Delivered in English and designed in a hybrid format, the talks are accessible to colleagues from our decentralised sites as well as international guests. Each session features a keynote presentation followed by open discussion, fostering constructive engagement and academic exchange.

A hallmark of the series is its focus on the interplay between research and teaching. Presenters are encouraged to reflect on how their work can inform curriculum development, enrich the learning experience, and support the delivery of research-informed teaching within accredited programmes.

This initiative contributes to ERUNI’s mission as a university committed to intellectual rigour, inclusivity, and global academic collaboration. By connecting research with education, ERUNI Research Talks supports the development of scholarly work with both academic and societal impact.

We welcome participation from all members of the ERUNI academic community and beyond. The series offers an inclusive space for thoughtful dialogue, knowledge-sharing, and the co-creation of ideas that shape both research and higher education.
