For three postgraduate students from Vasyl Stefanyk Carpathian National University summer was not just a vacation, but a real intellectual and scientific challenge. There were PhD students from the Department of Mathematical and Functional Analysis and Bohdan Stuparyk Department of Pedagogy and Educational Management. Daryna Dolishniak (supervisor – Professor Andrii Zagorodniuk), Olesia Dzholik (supervisor – Professor Viktoria Stynska) and Olga Hander-Kalinovska (supervisor – Associate Professor Viktoria Kravtsiv) completed a two-month internship at the International Telematic University UNINETTUNO (Rome, Italy), which combines the innovation of distance learning with a deep academic and scientific approach.
For eight weeks, participants immersed themselves in training, interacted with colleagues from around the world, mastered new research methods, and worked under the mentorship of Professor Clemente Cesarano.
A distinctive feature of the internship was intercultural communication and academic mobility, which allowed participants to see their profession in a broader (European) context. The initiator and inspirer of the postgraduate students’ participation in the Erasmus+ programme was Roman Dmytryshyn, Professor of the Department of Mathematical and Functional Analysis, a well-known scientist and active promoter of international cooperation in education.
Thanks to his support and coordination, the internship turned into a full-fledged academic journey that opened new horizons for student development.
