What? BENEVOL on Thursday and Friday, November 21 and 22: the congress will bring together researchers working in software engineering, evolution, and maintenance. This year, we will have two keynotes: one by Prof. Andy Zaidman from TU Delft and one by Prof. Sonia Haiduc from Florida State University. IMPACT! day on November 20: as a PhD student and/or researcher, you can join us to learn to communicate what you bring to the table efficiently thanks to the tried and tested Value Proposition canvas and exchange with practitioners, who will expose the challenges they encounter daily. The IMPACT! day initiative is supported by the GRASCOMP doctoral school, and participants will receive a certificate. As a software development professional, you can join us on Wednesday afternoon, November 20, as a guest from the corporate world to share your current challenges and connect with researchers working to advance software development and maintenance practices (please do not hesitate to contact us at snail.info@unamur.be if you would like to participate in the introductory panel of guests from the professional world and/or at the World Café).

By recreating an astronomical observatory on its campus, UNamur's ambition was to roll out an educational program open to all, enabling people to learn about science through the prism of sky observation. Five years later, the project has lived up to all its promises, and has become the driving force behind several partnerships in the field of scientific mediation.

Dear teachers, We are pleased to invite you to a unique educational experience at the Antoine Thomas Astronomical Observatory. Offer your students the opportunity to discover the Antoine Thomas Astronomical Observatory, an observatory built on the very site where the Jesuit fathers established their own observation, training and research dome in the 19th century. Located in downtown Namur, in the heart of the university, our observatory is equipped with state-of-the-art instruments, for both night-time and daytime observation, with one of Belgium's largest solar telescopes. A visit to the observatory allows you to discover how astronomy is practiced today and - weather conditions permitting - to observe the sun in complete safety. Plan your visit today! To organize a school visit, please complete the registration form available on our website. Practical information:Guided tour 1ère to 6ème secondaire 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm or 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm Faculty of Medicine - Place du Palais de Justice, Namur Gratuit - Sur inscription The observatory is not accessible to people with reduced mobility Next date:February 11, 2025This activity is organized with the support of Wallonie Recherche.

Depuis son inauguration en 2019, l’observatoire astronomique de l’UNamur a déployé un programme pédagogique et de médiation scientifique ouvert à toutes et à tous, avec l’ambition de faire découvrir les sciences par le prisme de l’observation des merveilles du ciel. 5 ans plus tard, le pari est réussi ! La petite équipe qui anime les lieux multiplie les collaborations et les activités proposées aux étudiantes et aux étudiants, aux écoles et au grand public. Cet automne, l’Observatoire astronomique célébrera l’empreinte durable qu’il a construite dans les yeux et les cœurs de son public en fêtant son 5e anniversaire. Une occasion de rassembler la communauté qui s’est développée autour de ses projets passés, présents et futurs !

After more than 60 years in existence, the Faculty of Economics, Social Sciences and Management (FSESG) at the University of Namur unveils its new name for the start of the academic year. It has become the EMCP Faculty, or Faculté Économie Management Communication sciencesPo. Every year, many students are trained here to become future experts and decision-makers in economics, management, communications and political science. How do you reconcile teaching methods and research with the challenges of a society in transition? This is the challenge taken up by the EMCP vision, a reflection of reflection and experience, carried forward by students and staff alike.
