The aim of the three-year project (registration number CZ.1.07/2.2.00/15.0357) was to innovate three out of the existing five study programs of the Faculty of Health Studies, University of Pardubice (FHS UPa) and to enhance the professional competence of the academic staff, which would lead to the modernization of teaching methods and incorporation of new, scientific knowledge in the educational activities. The project responded to the societal demand for highly qualified healthcare personnel in the context, among other things, of an aging population. The project involved all four departments of the faculty: The Department of Nursing, The Department of Midwifery and Health and Social Work, The Department of Clinical Subspecialties, and the Department of Informatics, Management, and Radiology. In addition, the project had a partner institution – the Pardubice Regional Hospital, jointstock company (JSC). The project consisted of four key activities. The project started on April 1, 2011 and ended on March 31, 2014. It was part of the Operational program Education for Competiveness; Priority Axis 7.2 Tertiary Education, Research, and Development; Area of Intervention 7.2.2 Higher Education.

Nilsson, Per A.
This paper explores expectations and outcomes for outbound students in Sweden, comparing their
expectations with what they actually experienced. Based on an initial sample of 143 students 57
answered both surveys, before and after having the experience of studying abroad. The aim is to
investigate to what extent the expectations of outbound exchange students are being met in a
population of students who had temporarily studied abroad. In this study, Umeå University, Sweden, is used as a case. This study highlights what incentives students have to become exchange students and most importantly, how they value this experience. The respondents had positive expectations before departing as exchange students and they returned with even more positive attitudes.

Koníčková, Naďa
Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020). By coupling research and innovation, Horizon 2020 is helping to achieve sustainable growth and jobs in Europe with its emphasis on excellent science, industrial leadership and tackling societal challenges. The goal is to ensure Europe produces world-class science, removes barriers to innovation and makes it easier for the public and private sectors to work together in delivering innovation. Important new feature of the Horizon 2020 is simplification of rules for participation and administrative procedures. New financing instruments are introduced to facilitate
innovation uptake by SMEs. Measurements aiming at spreading excellence and widening participation
of less research performing countries in European research activities will be implemented and
synergies of Horizon 2020 with other financing sources (e.g. structural funds) will be supported.
