From May 19–23, 2025, staff and students from our university proudly took part in their first-ever Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) under Erasmus+, combined with the 2nd ACC Forum. The event was hosted and organized by the Technical University of Liberec (TUL).

Participating Universities from the Euroregion Nisa:

• AE Branch in Jelenia Góra (Poland)

• HSGZ Görlitz/Zittau (Germany)
• DHSN Sachsen (Germany)
• KANS (Poland)
• TUL (Czech Republic)

Theme: "Artificial Intelligence in Practice – Its Contribution to the Development of the Euroregion Nisa"

Around 60 students from Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic, along with lecturers and invited guests, worked together to explore the practical applications of Artificial Intelligence. Sessions ran daily from morning until late afternoon, delivering intensive learning experiences.

Real-World Insights

Participants enjoyed a full-day excursion to the Škoda Auto Factory in Mladá Boleslav, where they observed how AI is integrated into vehicles, customer service, and dealership operations.

Exploring Liberec

Despite the packed schedule, there was time for leisure! Highlights included:

• A relaxing visit to Babylon Water Park
• A scenic trip up Ještěd Mountain (1,012 m)
• A cultural stroll through the charming city of Liberec

What Participants Gained:

• 3 ECTS credits

Looking Ahead: KANS to Host in 2027

TUL currently leads the ACC initiative in the Euroregion Nisa, which is why they hosted this year’s BIP. In 2027, KANS will assume leadership and organize the next ACC Forum/BIP Erasmus+ around 2028  . We’re excited to announce our plans early, and we’re grateful for support from the AE branch in Jelenia Góra.
