Abstract

Purpose: The article aims to present implementation of scientific projects on example of the Young Discoverer's University – in Polish Uniwersytet Mlodego Odkrywcy (further in text referred to as UMO). In 2016-2017, project was financed by Ministry of Science and Higher Education, and in 2018-2021 by National Centre for Research and Development (NCRD). The objectives, insights, and significance of science projects are presented. Design/Methodology/Approach: The paper presents types and structure of project pyramid to characterize affiliation between ongoing project and group. The research is based on a case study as a research method, focus interviews, and a literature review. The research objective of paper is to evaluate implementation of scientific projects on example of UMO based on author's own experience. The research contributes to formulation of research aim if there is a regular pattern for implementing scientific projects on example of UMO. Findings: The research results allow author to verify research hypothesis. The subjective scope of evaluation includes both young people participating in implementing projects from West Pomeranian Voivodeship and academic staff. The subject of evaluation pertains to implementation of scientific projects. Practical Implications: The case study relating to phenomenon in question at a specific time, place, and conditions on target population is used to obtain relevant data to verify validity of research hypothesis. Originality/Value: According to research, there is a regular pattern for implementing scientific projects on example of UMO; therefore, it is worthwhile to engage in such initiatives. The choice of topic is due to current issues related to applying for various types of funding from various institutions, i.e., National Science Center (NSC), National Centre for Research and Development (NCRD), Ministry of Science and Higher Education (MSHE) and Associations, which are increasingly crucial for scientific units.
