Information

International Student Congress

On 28th and 29th April, the 18th International Student Congress, or Congreso Internacional de Estudiantes (CIE), organized by the CEU Cardenal Herrera University, will take place. The main aim of this event is to provide students with an introduction to the research world and show how science can improve people’s lives and our environment.

As part of CEU UCH’s wider commitment to research, the 18th International Student Congress offers students the opportunity to learn research skills – an essential part of their development. The aim is to ensure that the experience is as close as possible to that of a professional academic event.

The student participants will experience something different from their usual day-to-day university activities. Instead of lectures and practicals, they will carry out research and present their studies publicly before others, with their work being assessed by a panel of experts. The International Student Congress is an inclusive and multidisciplinary experience, welcoming students from all degrees with a single goal in mind: to contribute to scientific knowledge

This year, the Congress will take place in an in-person format on the Alfara del Patriarca Campus, health-related circumstances permitting.
