We hereby invite the University of Sarajevo’s organizational units to take part in the European Night of Researchers that will be held on 27 September 2019.

The European Night of Researchers is an event held throughout Europe on the initiative of the European Commission since 2005 and is part of the Horizon 2020 Program, which gathers a large number of visitors and researchers and eight cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Sarajevo, Banja Luka, Mostar, Tuzla, Zenica , Goražde, Bijeljina and Konjic).

The aim of the event is to promote research and science as well as to raise awareness among the general public about the impact of research on everyday life. The promotion of science and research, in the case of Night of Researchers, involves various activities in the evening, focusing on presenting researchers in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, highlighting the positive impact of researchers on everyday life, and promoting the career of researchers, especially among young people.

This year, through the slogan “LET'S STEAM - Let's create new opportunities”  the goal is presenting the planned activities to the BH citizens to the greatest extent possible. The University of Sarajevo was invited to be a partner in the realization of this interesting program in order to present our activities to the professional community, young population of potential students, as well as to the general BH public.

The possibilities of presentation are diverse, from promotion at the Science and Innovation Fair, individual activities or specially designed programs.

The University of Sarajevo will receive a separate space within the Science Fair this year, and the participation of organizational units will be realized through interactive demonstration booths. On this occasion, we invite organizational units to devise and prepare a way of presenting their research activities on this event. The online application platform will be open at the end of August, about which organizational units will be notified in a timely manner.

We hope that you will recognize the significance of this event and the opportunity it provides, and that you will contribute to the presentation of the University of Sarajevo at this year's Night of Researchers as part of its activities.
