EFFECTUS students have the opportunity to participate in the international Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) taking place in the Czech Republic at Škoda Auto University (Mladá Boleslav, near Prague).

The programme, Strategic Sustainability Management & Systems Thinking, is designed as an innovative educational experience that connects sustainability, technology, and decision-making through a modern systems thinking approach. Through a combination of online and onsite activities, students will work on real-life projects, learn from industry experts, and collaborate in international teams.

The programme awards 5 ECTS credits and places a strong emphasis on practical work, an interdisciplinary approach, and the development of critical thinking skills. Its goal is to help students understand how modern systems — although technologically advanced — are often not aligned with sustainability and real societal needs, and how they can be balanced through a new way of thinking.

Key Information:

• Location: Škoda Auto University, Czech Republic (near Prague)
• Dates: 25–29 May 2026 (including an online component)
• ECTS Credits: 5
• Funding: Erasmus+ mobility grant (funded for EFFECTUS students)
• Note: Students are responsible for covering travel, accommodation, and meal expenses using their Erasmus+ grant support

Important:
The number of places is limited — a maximum of 5 EFFECTUS students who successfully pass the selection process will be chosen.

The programme is intended for students interested in sustainability, business, digital transformation, and innovation. Previous knowledge is not required — the key qualities are motivation, curiosity, and openness to a different way of thinking.

Application deadline: 5 May 2026
