Intellectual capital and its role in enhancing the position of university professor through scientific tourism

Abstract

Scientific tourism is a travel theme that brings together scientific attractions. It covers interests in visiting and exploring scientific monuments, including museums, laboratories, observatories and universities. The cognitive functional framework for psychological research therefore indicates that research and cognitive professors work on two separate levels: functional and cognitive, and support each other. We propose a classification that includes four different types of applied psychology and an assessment of the advantages of each type. We also believe that applied psychology can be strengthened by enhancing its functional essence, thus evolving into a more integrated but still diverse discipline of psychological engineering. Most university campuses are open to the general public, although access to buildings is usually limited to students, professors and staff. However, some universities may have a scientific museum for the public to present their most important findings. The basis of scientific tourism is to meet the educational, cultural and recreational needs of a group of people who are equally interested. The main part of scientific tourism is expert-led trips in a particular scientific field. Some seminars can also be included with various audio-visual means. Scientific travellers use shared tourism infrastructure (hotels, catering institutions, transportation, cultural shows and entertainment centres) and use the latest audio-visual technologies for seminars and experiences. Scientific tourism is becoming increasingly important today and is the fastest growing area of tourism along with leisure tourism, so our research shows different dimensions of conference or scientific tourism. We present a case study of an international scientific conference with references to other conferences and efforts to show some general regularity. The research was conducted from the perspective of the systematic anthropological theory of tourism, tourism sociology and the concept of tourism for non-recreational trip and marketing of scientific tourism. Findings and conclusions. Scientific tourism is an interesting example of combining the features of many types of tourism. In addition to purely scientific purposes, there are elements of conference tourism, transportation, culture, or religion. In interpreting this type of tourism, one must take into account the dimensions of self-realization, cultural, scientific and recreational dialogue.
