Erasmus+-meeting in Miskolc, October 14th to October 18th
The meeting in Miskolc, Hungary took place from October 14th to October 18th 2024. Working in internationally mixed groups we did a research about the production of bioethanol and tried to figure out pros and cons about the usage of bioethanol considering both ethical and economical aspects. Afterwards we had a debate on that issue. The experimental production of ethanol by fermentation, the measurement of the CO2 produced and the impact on different parameters on the reaction were done in internationally mixed groups. A visit to the life-science university with a lab workshop on different methods of purification gave us more insight into the different fields of biotechnology and ecology. The meeting was completed by an evaluation and reflection of the acquired knowledge and competences.
Different kinds of group activities, trips to the cities of Miskolc and Debrecen provided us with a deeper insight of Hungarian culture. Furthermore, by living in host families we gained a better understanding on everyday life in Hungary.
During the whole project students used English as a working language which enabled us both to improve our communication skills and learn new academic and scientific vocabulary.
We are looking forward to seeing our newfound friends in the meetings in Vienna and Krakow!
