„Of the future: computer science and mathematics – INFORMAT” (Faculty of Computer Science and Faculty of Mathematics)
Mathematics, as is well known, forms the basis of all sciences, but it also guides almost every step we take in daily life. Although it is not the favorite of many students, we cannot get by without it, and those who understand it have a clear advantage over others in many professions.
On the other hand, computer science started as a branch of mathematics, which broke away from the common trunk and followed its own path, without ever forgetting where it came from. Today, it is in high demand because it constantly brings new things and new challenges into our lives.
The INFORMAT summer school wants to show students the best of both worlds, what opportunities open up for those who follow them, and what they will be able to do later if they choose to walk this path. It is not possible to fully present something so vast, but students will be able to come into contact with some directions that we hope they will find appealing:

It is not possible to fully present something so vast, but students will be able to come into contact with some directions that we hope they will find appealing:
- Cryptography and information security – who isn’t interested today in what can happen to their tablet or computer, their phone, or even their bank account? They are all more or less vulnerable to “electronic” wrongdoers, and it is good to learn how to protect ourselves from trouble.
- Astronomy – it’s not just for astronauts! Celestial mechanics, planetary orbits, comets, artificial satellites—all belong to this field, which attracts numerous enthusiasts.
- How computers and programs work – many students have already discovered some of their secrets, but there are still plenty left to uncover.
- The future of computer science – about robots, virtual reality, social networks, 3D printers, and much more. There are so many new technologies changing our lives almost every day that it is hard for us to keep up with them.

(GEO-GEO)” intended for students from high schools eligible to receive funding through the ROSE grant scheme.
Students in at-risk situations can participate and will benefit from an intensive and diversified program of practical courses that will help them understand the specifics of geology as a science that studies the Earth, its composition and structure, fossils and the evolution of life throughout geological time, as well as its relationship with the Earth’s mineral resources. Geography as a science will become more engaging for students through an understanding of how natural resources related to water and soil must be managed in accordance with the principles of sustainable development, within the context of urban progress and demographic growth. Workshops will provide students with skills and competencies related to the analysis of water, soil, and rock samples using modern equipment, and will help them forecast probable weather based on natural phenomena.
Study visits conducted at the Iași Meteorological Station and the Repedea Geological and Paleontological Reserve in Iași will contribute to learning modern tools and methods for recording climatic parameters, storing and transmitting information, and developing meteorological forecasts. Students will better understand the geological history of the city of Iași.
During a 1-day study trip, students will have the opportunity to visit one of the most interesting research and student practice stations in Romania. Located in the Rarău Massif at an altitude of 1572 meters, the „Ion Gugiuman” Rarău Research and Student Practice Station constitutes an extremely important base for scientific research in Romania.
Special attention will be dedicated to professional counseling and career guidance activities, through which students will receive specialized assistance to make informed and correct decisions regarding their future university path, in correlation with their own aspirations and cognitive potential.
For the benefit of the students, sports competitions and recreational activities will be organized, through which students will experience team spirit, leadership drive, the ability to express themselves artistically, and other empowering traits. Cultural events (museum visits, attending shows) scheduled during the summer school will lead to a better appreciation of the artistic and cultural heritage of academic Iași and will highlight the prospects that student life entails.
To truly experience what student life means, students will be accommodated in the university dormitories and will be served meals at the canteen. They will equally benefit from the university’s educational facilities: conference and seminar rooms, computer and multimedia laboratories, sports facilities, and recreational areas within the university campus.
Each student participating in the GEO-GEO summer school will receive the following materials: pen, notebook, baseball cap, backpack, t-shirt, badge, personalized ROSE+UAIC reusable textile mask, world geographic atlas, smartwatch, keychain compass, memory stick, and other materials necessary for the smooth running of the activity.

Testimonials from participating high school students in the Summer Schools organized in 2019
“The most important things I learned at the summer school were related to prejudices—meaning not judging a book by its cover, the way people see and perceive you, and also the fact that in a team it’s not about individuals, but about a unified whole.
I honestly say that LiteratIS changed me as a person, made me rediscover myself, helped me overcome my shyness, and made me a better version of myself. You can apply to Letters even if you are passionate about something else, because it helps you. LiteratIS doesn’t just mean books, reading, and essays. LiteratIS means family, love, affection, tenderness, and sometimes even arguments. LiteratIS changes worlds! What do you say? Did I hook you? Are you ready to change your own world?”
“When I found out that I was selected for the LiteratIS program, I was overwhelmed by a wave of unique and inexplicable emotions: joy, delight, gratitude, enthusiasm, curiosity, and dozens of others. I had very high expectations, but after the first days, I realized that even my expectations had been surpassed—I came to consider this place home. Every day we had all sorts of constructive activities, I learned a lot about the university, its specializations, and I got to know the campus and a large part of the city. I met wonderful people, university professors, students, and above all, I met many students with whom I formed lasting friendships, exchanged opinions, had fun, and lived every moment to the fullest.
Aside from the fact that it helped many of us figure out our university direction, this experience matured us and introduced us to student life. Words are not enough to express my positive opinion about this beautiful chapter in my life, which left its mark on me and determined me to work hard to go further at the „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University, Faculty of Letters.”

“I believe in you, and if I managed to adapt, I’m sure you will too. Good luck, have fun, don’t stress too much!”
“Hello, little student!
You should know that I was once just like you are today—maybe a bit shy, and so eager to see what awaited me. However, I discovered that shyness holds you back, it confines you, whereas you should always try new things.
I met a lot of wonderful people in this place with whom I formed friendships, because that is the most important thing. I learned a bunch of things beneficial for my future, I experienced the simulation of a student’s life and tried to keep up with it, even though sometimes it was very tiring. I realized that if you want to be appreciated, you have to work for it. That you must respect in order to be respected.
LiteratIS was the best thing that has happened to me so far. Here I faced every possible feeling, I convinced myself regarding the faculty I want to follow, and I realized what characterizes me.
So GIVE IT A TRY! You have nothing to lose; on the contrary, you only stand to gain experience, new friends, information regarding the faculty you want to attend, and other things experienced during two wonderful weeks.
YOLO — You only live once
So make the most of it!”

“I learned what the word „team” means, I learned to a large extent what student life is, and I understood that learning isn’t just about memorizing information.”
“I learned to live every moment, to leave with beautiful memories and an unforgettable experience.”
“The expectations were beyond measure, I learned a lot of new things, and I am deeply glad that I came here and I truly don’t regret anything. I will definitely repeat this unique and special experience next year.”
