The virtual component ensued from April 26th to May 5th, 2024, ensuring continuity of learning and collaboration beyond physical constraints.
This summer school is an Erasmus+ Blended Intensive programme organized by the Faculty of Engineering Technology of Hasselt University in close collaboration with KU Leuven and the EURECA-PRO network. Big thanks to the dedicated organizers from the UHasselt Faculty of Engineering Technology for orchestrating this transformative event!
