University of Warsaw’s Welcome Point is happy to invite all long-term international students to the next edition of ‘Emotions management in epidemic and post-epidemic world’ workshops with Dorota Kobylińska, PhD from the Faculty of Psychology, University of Warsaw.

The coronavirus outbreak is a particularly demanding and stressful time for all people. We often feel confused and unsure of the future. During the workshops you will learn about emotion regulation strategies and find out how to experience positive emotions more often in the context of Polish culture. It will also be a great opportunity to spend your free time in a pleasant, supportive atmosphere!

Our workshops are practical, therefore participants will be asked to express their opinion and work in groups.

When?

December 10-11, 2020, 10:00 am. – 1:15 pm.
Please note that attendance during two days of workshops is required.

Where?

If you qualify for the workshop, we will send you a link to the meeting on the Zoom platform.

Who can participate? 

2nd and 3rd year students of first cycle (Bachelor’s degree)
4th and 5th year students of uniform Master studies
students of second cycle (Master’s degree)

Please note that these workshops are only dedicated to long-term students, not Erasmus students.
Hurry up! The places are limited. To register to the course please fill in the form. Application deadline: 26th November 2020, 12 pm.

‘Emotions management in epidemic and post-epidemic world’ workshop is organised within the Integrated Development Programme at the University of Warsaw and funded by European Social Fund.

November 20: ‘A Plane out of Phase’ – The Dark Continuance of the Gothic 1980s

November 19, 2024

Weird Fictions Research Group invites you to join for a fantastic (no pun intended) lecture by our guest, Dr. Sorcha Ní Fhlainn from Manchester Metropolitan University! This lecture asks you to consider the dark return of the Gothic 1980s in contemporary culture. Drawing upon ideas and examples of sequelisation, IP branding, apparatus theory, YouTube video curation, nostalgic programming, weird TV, and music, and the confluence of such forms in streaming series including Stranger Things and the current media adoption of Dark MAGA, this lecture invites you to examine the toxicity of the rhetoric of restorative projections and to query its undervalued reflective nostalgia as imagined onscreen to reclaim the future from the precarious dark present.
