In a nutshell, 30 students will embark on a unique journey, traveling by train from one Unite! partner university (UPC Barcelona) to another (Grenoble INP-UGA). Along the way, students will engage in various non-academic activities. Upon reaching their destination, they will continue with team-building exercises and, of course, academic work. The course, also including virtual studies before or after the September U!Train, will be worth 3 credits (ECTS).

Unite!'s mission is to facilitate student-led planning, offering you the opportunity to shape the university of the future. You are invited to come together and help Unite! design tailor-made non-academic activities for the U!Train by participating in the U!Train Ideathon.
An Ideathon is an event where participants come together to brainstorm, develop, and present innovative ideas or solutions to specific challenges or problems. Often, there is a pitch at the end to evaluate the work.

The winning team's ideas will be implemented in the U!Train. Additionally, if you’re still a Unite! student in 2024 and choose to apply for the U!Train course, participating in the U!Train Ideathon will earn you 'extra points' to secure your seat on the train!
