On 11 July 2022, a meeting occurred between Maria Curie-Sklodowska University representatives and a delegation from Gediminas Technical University in Vilnius. The meeting was unusual because it took place via a portal linking our two cities.
The meeting aimed to strengthen relations between the universities, which work together as part of the ATHENA Consortium of European Universities. Together with other universities from across the continent, Maria Curie-Sklodowska University carries out activities in advanced technologies in higher education. More information about the ATHENA can be found at: https://www.umcs.pl/en/athena.htm
