Last year,
the event Researchers’ Night had to be held online due to the coronavirus
pandemic. However, this year the University of West Bohemia could invite all
those interested in science to a personal meeting held at the premises of all
three technical Faculties. The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, the Faculty
of Mechanical Engineering, and the Faculty of Applied Sciences remained open
even after dark and welcomed young and adult visitors, who were attracted by
this year's theme Time.
The theme
was part of most of the exhibitions. Did you want to find out how time is measured
and how it was measured by our ancestors? Or were you looking for the answer to
the philosophical question "What is time?". How does the economy
relate to time and how do you save a life when every minute counts? How do
materials change over time and what can we expect in the future? Visitors of
the event got answers to all of these questions thanks to the Faculties that
prepared the exhibitions. Artists were also included, as the Ladislav Sutnar
Faculty of Design and Art ended the event with building projection mapping
which was on show at 9.30 p.m.
Researchers’
Night is coordinated by the University of Ostrava and VSB – Technical
University of Ostrava, to which other Czech schools and institutions join.
