Abstract
Academic contests addressed to students are an important activity that aids in developing extracurricular competencies. They are addressed to people who represent various academic institutions and attend Bachelor’s, Master’s and doctoral courses. In the applicable subject field, the Chair of Landscape Architecture in the Faculty of Architecture at Cracow University of Technology, Kraków, Poland, has been organising international and Polish conferences for twenty-seven years, while student contests for six. These contests confront students with research options in the field of landscape architecture. This article presents an educational method directed at students interested in this field, as an answer to the previously detected educational gaps. The method described here allows for research engagement and serves as an introduction to the academic path. This method may contribute to raising interest in academic work among students and allows for gaining additional competencies and knowledge connected with academic skills.
