Virtual component attendance period: streaming on the Microsoft Teams platform September 23-24, 2025
Language of instruction: ENGLISH
CFU/ECTS credits recognized for participation in the Program: 3
Goals:
The BIP aims to create aquatic landscapes within urban structures. The renewal of cities' public spaces requires new scenarios for water conservation and reuse, at a time when the value of water resources is increasingly high due to climate change.
Program Description:
The BIP program includes an intensive workshop, in which participants, working in international teams,
will develop spatial and landscape solutions that meet the ecological, environmental, cultural, and current needs
of the city of Reggio Calabria.
The workshop aims to create projects that embody a vision of a new relationship between water and the
urban landscape through a linear urban park that superimposes various systems such as the water system, road and street systems
, vegetation, and structures.
Students will work on maps, creating hand-drawn sketches, design concepts, and drawings on their
computers.
DIP. DIGIES - BIP Autumn school in "Digital transformations and Civil Law"
The Università Mediterranea di Reggio Calabria, as part of the Erasmus+ program, has promoted the activation of the Erasmus Blended Intensive Program (BIP): Autumn school in "Digital Transformations and Civil Law" at the DIGIES Department.
Blended Intensive Program coordinated by the Mediterranean University of Reggio Calabria
Department: Law, Economics and Human Sciences (DiGiES)
Project Coordinator: Prof. Angelo Viglianisi Ferraro
Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) ID: 2024-1-IT02-KA131-HED-000212151-1
Partner universities of the program:
- TRANSYLVANIA UNIVERSITY OF BRASOV - Erasmus code: RO BRASOV01
- KRAKOW UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS - cod. Erasmus: PL KRAKOW04
Host location for the in-person period: Mediterranean University of Reggio Calabria
In-person attendance period: from 21 to 25 October 2025 (5 days), at DiGiES
Virtual component attendance period: (streamed on the Teams platform) from 15 to 20 October 2025 and from 26 October to 18 December 2025
Language of instruction: ENGLISH
CFU/ECTS credits recognized for participation in the Program: 3
Goals:
Students participating in the BIP Autumn School in "Digital Transformations and Civil Law" will focus specifically on Artificial Intelligence, Civil Law, and Human Rights. They will discuss whether AI will transform the practice of civil law and whether logic-oriented legal methodology is an activity to which AI can be successfully applied.
Given the enormous amount of data generated by humans and machines, and because AI underpins all computer-learning technologies, students will discuss whether it represents the future of complex decision-making.
Plan:
The students' diverse cultural backgrounds will allow them to examine the topic of Artificial Intelligence from various perspectives, allowing them to experience firsthand any differences and convergences of opinion between the Italian and Polish scientific communities on the topic.
Expected learning outcomes:
- Engage in successful legal research using cost-effective research methods: identify and analyze laws, as well as new legal issues and ambiguities within the law.
- Place legal issues in broader institutional contexts: analyze laws from diverse and global perspectives; discuss the political, social, and economic forces that shape laws; and examine not only the likelihood of legal success of an argument or strategy, but also the moral, economic, social, political, and other factors implicated by the argument or strategy.
