Summary of bilateral results
The University of Hradec Kralove has been cooperating with Lillehammer University College (LUC) for few years now. However, the cooperation has been based especially on the collaboration and on the professional training of the academic staff. The main idea for the realization of the Summer school of Interdisciplinary Studies was an extension of existing inter-university cooperation on a students´ level and increasing of the students´ mobility. UHK perceives the building and maintaining of a successful partnership on a bilateral level as one of the basic prerequisites for the formation of a quality base for its university’s students. The possibility to organize the Summer school launched the cooperation on the students´ level and brought the opportunity for other intercollegiate student activities.
