Public Administration needs to face the new challenges of societal demands, in an era of technological achievements (like mobile apps providing fast access to citizens to e-services, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Artificial Intelligence).
Are you a student and want to develop your research skills? Join our Researchers’ Night from Wednesday, June 7th to Friday, June 9th in Bucharest.
WHAT IS RESEARCHERS’ NIGHT?
Researchers’ Night is an event focused on analyzing the online presence of Romanian public institutions, being also the first event of its kind organized in Bucharest by the National University of Political Studies and Public Administration, Faculty of Public Administration and Smart-EDU Hub.
For 24 hours, you will work in a team with 2 fellow students to collect information from Romanian public institutions’ websites and transcribe their presence into a dedicated form. (The institutions and information on how to access their Web content will be presented to the registered teams on the first day of the event).
At the end of the event, each team will present the result of their efforts to a Jury, and the winners will be awarded.
As we plan a fun experience for you, entertainment activities will accompany you throughout the event!
