Activities
ACC focuses primarily on research projects involving partner organisations from multiple countries. Its main purpose is to serve as a platform for establishing and maintaining contacts and for mutual coordination.
The ACC also involves students from its partner universities in research projects and organises international student symposia, specialised seminars, workshops, and competitions for them.
In addition to scientific work, the ACC fosters educational cooperation, supports student and faculty mobility, and strives to facilitate contacts in the higher education sector.

ACC JOURNAL publishes original peer-reviewed scientific papers, scientific studies, conference proceedings, and research project reports. The journal’s topics mainly cover the natural sciences, engineering, economics, and the social sciences. Articles are published in Open Access format.
