Semantic Metadata Mapping for Interdisciplinary Course Discovery
- Name Semantic Metadata Mapping for Interdisciplinary Course Discovery
- Description This project aims to create a semantic layer on top of course metadata across EU GREEN universities using controlled vocabularies and ontologies (e.g., UNESCO ISCED, EuroVoc). The system will support intelligent course recommendation tools, particularly for interdisciplinary programs such as environmental law, digital ethics, and climate finance. Students will be involved in usability testing and language adaptation.

[test] Mental Health of University Students: associated factors between countries (MHUS)
- Name [test] Mental Health of University Students: associated factors between countries (MHUS)
- Description To have sustainable academic environments, it is necessary to promote the well-being of staff and students. Mental health has been getting worse over time in university students, with the pandemic exacerbating it. The aim is to leverage a mental health project, by comparing the mental health of university students between European countries and the factors that influence it. Data from this study will be used to apply for funding from Horizon Europe for the development of strategies to promote the mental health of university students, contributing to sustainable development. Sustainable Development Goals: Good heatlh and well-being, Quality education, Gender equality
