Dear Participants of TSSP 2020!
Because of the COVID-9 pandemic, we have taken the difficult decision to postpone TSSP 2020. Ensuring the safety of participants from around the world is priority, we feel we have no other choice and we have to change the date. All other conditions and rules of TSSP are still the same (see here).
If you have questions or would like further information about your participation, you can contact us by submitting email to Coordinator of the chosen Program.
In the meantime, stay healthy, stay safe, and stay positive.
With kind regards,
TSSP UMK Committee

For each participant, we will offer the student housing in Toruń or Bydgoszcz and a daily allowance of 50 PLN (~12 euro), which are more than sufficient to cover the living costs during the stay in Poland.
This year's TSSP novelty is that the NCU student can join each project! The decision to join a student of our university is made individually by the trainee's tutor.
Apart from the projects, once a week, we will organise an invited lecture and a lunch or dinner for the entire group for each program. We will also offer short trips/sightseeing in the Toruń and Bydgoszcz area on selected weekends. All students will be asked to give 15-minute presentations about the results of their projects at the end of their stay in Toruń/ Bydgoszcz.Students accepted in 2020 will complete an internship in 2021. Recruitment will start on April 19 this year for new students willing to participate in TSSP.
We kindly ask all interested students to provide us with the following information in English:
