ENU Researchers and Doctoral Students Completed Training at the International Summer School in Poland

Faculty members and doctoral students of the Faculty of Architecture and Civil Engineering at the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University (ENU) participated in the IMPK – Sustainable Building Materials and Technologies International Summer School, organized by Krakow University of Technology (Poland) within the framework of the international Spinaker programme.

The educational programme, dedicated to environmentally friendly building materials and sustainable construction technologies, was conducted under the supervision of Professor Izabela Hager, PhD, of the Krakow University of Technology. The programme was delivered in a blended format, combining online instruction with an on-site training session in Krakow.

ENU was represented by Lyazzat Aruova, Head of the Department of Industrial and Civil Construction Technologies; Akmaral Tleubayeva, Associate Professor of the Department of Civil Engineering; Leila Zhaksylykova, Senior Lecturer of the Department of Architecture; and doctoral students Danara Mazhit and Saltanat Tolembayeva from the doctoral programme Production of Building Materials, Products and Structures.

The lectures and practical sessions were delivered by leading academics of the Krakow University of Technology, including Professor Izabela Hager, Professor Tomasz Tracz, Dr. Tomasz Zdeb, Dr. Maciej Urban, Dr. Barbara Kozub, Dr. Szymon Gądek, Dr. Katarzyna Mróz, and Dr. Aleksander Kozak.

The Summer School brought together participants from France, China, Ukraine, Vietnam, Taiwan, Latvia, and North Macedonia. During the programme, participants completed nine specialized micro-courses focusing on sustainable building materials, innovative construction technologies, and the principles of sustainable development in the construction industry.

Participation in the international educational programme enabled ENU faculty members and young researchers to exchange professional experience with international colleagues, establish new academic partnerships, and explore advanced global practices in sustainable construction. The knowledge and competencies gained will be integrated into the University's educational and research activities, contributing to the further development of international cooperation and enhancing the quality of training for future construction professionals.
