The fourteenth edition of Trieste Next, the Festival of Scientific Research to be held September 26-28, 2025 with a focus on “Life Within. Dialogues between science and technology,” is once again focusing on the ”Volunteer Project.” The initiative allows all UniTS male and female students to experience the event as protagonists. This year's theme invites to explore the depths of life, from its most intimate mechanisms to the great challenges of our time.  

Becoming a volunteer at Trieste Next is an extremely engaging and stimulating experience that allows you to work on the front lines within an international event, discover the system of scientific research in our territory and be inspired by the scientists and women scientists and the dissemination of their projects.  Volunteers will support the activities of the teaching staff in the laboratories in Piazza Unità d'Italia, help welcome visitors and visitors and manage the rooms where the lectures and events are held. To fill this role requires passion, communication and interpersonal skills, empathy and a great desire to have fun and learn!  

For your valuable contribution, more than just a certificate of participation will be issued: UniTS will award 1 CFU to male and female students for 25 hours of volunteer work. Just submit the certificate of participation, which will be issued at the end of the event, to the Education Secretariat of your department.  

To apply, fill out the form by 8 p.m. on July 31, 2025.

For those interested in serving on a particular research team, we remind you that there is a specific field in the application form where you can indicate the name of the reference lecturer(s).

Come and be part of our team, we are waiting for you!
