About the Małopolska Researchers' Night
The Małopolska Researchers' Night is primarily aimed at showing the general public how interesting and inspiring scientific and academic research can be. Children, teenagers, as well as adult science enthusiasts are welcome to come and explore the fascinating world of research and scholarship.
The event is the largest of its kind in Poland and one of the largest in Europe. Its success is best illustrated by crowds of visitors who flood the premises of universities and other research institutions each year. The Jagiellonian University attracts the largest number of them, thanks to its rich and diverse programme, which comprises a wide variety of research disciplines, ranging from exact sciences to humanities.
The Researchers' Night is part of the European Commission initiative implemented within the framework of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions of Horizon 2020 Framework Programme.
