Successful Meeting with Ghent University: New Plans for International Collaboration

A successful ENLIGHT meeting in Bern laid the foundation for exciting new collaborations between Ghent University and the University of Bern, including joint lectures and enhanced student exchange opportunities.

On April 24 and 25, 2025, we had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Yanlu Li and Bert Coryn from the MSc Photonics Engineering and the Photonics Research group department at Ghent University for a two-day visit to Bern. Their visit took place as part of an ENLIGHT network meeting between the University of Bern and Ghent University.

The discussions were highly productive and inspiring. We explored new possibilities for collaboration, with a particular focus on joint lectures and academic activities as part of international student exchange programs. This exciting initiative aims to further strengthen our ties within the ENLIGHT network and to offer students valuable international learning experiences.

We are looking forward to developing these plans into concrete opportunities and deepening the academic partnership between our institutions.

Stay tuned for more updates as the collaboration takes shape!
