In order to implement technology transfer at Ukrainian universities R&D offices are established. In fact, technology transfer is not being performed. Such a situation occurs because of:- scientists are afraid of losing property rights to the scientific elaboration;- scientists have no experience of technology transfer;- university R&D offices, responsible for technology transfer are not ready or motivated enough to perform technology transfer, moreover, busy with bureaucratic work (supplying various types of reports, especially to the Ministry of Education of Ukraine). Nowadays, innovative offices at universities are not a link, which connects scientists, who form the innovation to the business environment.- investors’ unavailability to invest in risky projects, which technology transfer is. In addition, investors have no information about the research and development undertaken by universities.In order to conduct changes in technology transfer we are going to achieve the following goals:• To disseminate the information about the European experience through training University researchers, PhD students and administrative staff of University R&D offices to carry out technology transfer according to standards of the European Union. The goal will be achieved through three summer schools. Classes will be held both by Ukrainian and by EU experts. Teaching materials (lecture notes, presentations and cases) will be developed for the summer school “European Experience in Technology Transfer for Ukrainian Universities”. • To teach representatives of local government how to transfer technologies, how to develop innovative office, how to build regional technological maps and how to start spin offs and spin outs. This goal will be achieved through 3 trainings.

The UniTECH project aims to deliver EU experience in technology at three cycles of higher education at LPNU and contribute to the development of innovation culture at Lviv Polytechnic National University (LPNU). As a part of the project, we will develop the set of courses in the EU technology transfer for bachelors, masters, PhD, and life-long learning students of management and public administration specialties. Such an approach will contribute to building the vital link between Lviv Polytechnic National University and business, development of innovation culture, and modernization of the labor market in Ukraine.

"The relevance of this educational project is due to the insufficient awareness of educational, managerial, and business circles about the issue of the European experience in implementing the concept of ecosystem services, which is particularly important and useful for post-war reconstruction in Ukraine.The project goals correspond to the goals of Jean Monnet projects, namely:To acquire knowledge by the academic audience regarding the European experience in managing ecosystem services and further their application in the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine.To establish a dialogue between the academic world and regional and local executive bodies, government officials, representatives of different levels of education, and media on the advantages of applying the ecosystem services concept in the EU.To engage and raise awareness of the general public about the European experience in applying the ecosystem services concept through an information campaign in the media, social networks, and dissemination of information materials.To address these issues, it is proposed to involve representatives of united territorial communities (UTCs) within the Educational and Scientific Environment Module, based on which relevant target groups will be formed: ● students, graduate students, academic and administrative staff of the university; ● listeners of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences and students of secondary schools; ● representatives of environmental protection organizations; ● representatives of UTCs in the Lviv region and executive authorities; ● other interested parties.For target groups, the following is offered: ● A optional course: ""Ecosystem services for post-war reconstruction in Ukraine: European experience""; ● Qualification improvement courses: ""European experience of strategic planning of territory development taking into account ecosystem services for post-war reconstruction in Ukraine""; ● European studies: ""Ecosystem services: European experience""."

The main aim of the project is to study EU legislation and practices on personal data protection, dissemination of information about the new European rules of work with personal data of the GDPR, public dialogue, and stakeholder discussion, improvement of public perceptions of EU values and their compliance with information technologies.The objectives of the project are as follows:•to promote excellence in teaching and research in the sphere of Data Protection in EU in general and implementation of GDPR in particular;•to improve the quality of professional information technology specialists, data scientists and business analytics training with a focus on the values of personal data protection rules, standards of EU and respect for human rights;•to equip students, graduates, stakeholders and the public at large with knowledge of Data Protection in EU, promote understanding and perception of EU values, encourage of their enforcing in national practice.To achieve these objectives, it is planned to apply the following activities:•conducting lectures, seminars, and training for students, using the modern methodologies and technics;•invitation as guest-lecturer different experts in data protection from leading European universities;•Organization of summer school for students of all directions;•Conducting roundtables for all stakeholders, with the invitation of specialists from IT companies, experts from other universities of Ukraine.TEACHING:In the Jean Monnet Module «Data Protection in EU» we planned 2 new courses: 1.“The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR): implementation in Ukraine” Course “The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR): implementation in Ukraine” planned be offered 3 times (2nd semesters of 2019/20, 2020/21, 2021/22 academic years) for Bachelors (105 students/year).

The project aim is to implement the EU experience in achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) on the basis of the digital economy through the educational process and thematic activities (based on the Lviv Polytechnic National University).The UN agenda for the period up to 2030 includes 17 SDGs, which are common to all countries and aimed at developing human well-being and a healthy planet. Sustainable development is a fundamental principle of the EU and a priority goal of its policies. At the same time, the spread of Industry 4.0 involves the digitalization of all life spheres, determines the progress and features of production, contributes to the formation of new tools for sustainable economic development. The study of the EU experience in the economy of sustainable development in the context of digitalization will help to consider the practice of leading European universities in the formation of modern eco-principles of educational activity.The project involves the implementation of disciplines and a number of thematic activities on sustainable development (round table, workshop, conference), creation of a website with information on the implementation of sustainable development SDGs) comparison of European and domestic achievements in the field of sustainable development, introduction of successful European practices in educational programs of Ukrainian universities, elaboration of E-Learning Methodical Complex on platform Moodle, publication of articles, monograph, abstracts of the conference and Practical Guide on the results of the project. This will contribute to the dissemination of European experience in sustainable economic development with the use of digitalization to achieve its goals, and will contribute to the acquisition of students' general and professional competencies in the implementation of SDGs and their further development in professional life.
