Collaboration agreements and research projects with companies in the SE and CIT domains
The members of the Doctoral school of Automatic Control and Computers (SD_AC) within University Politehnica of Bucharest (UPB) have initiated Collaboration Agreements between the faculty of Automatic Control and Computers (A&C) and companies renowned in the design, development and integration of solutions, services and information and control systems that use advanced information and automation technologies, and promote research and innovation in the domains of System Engineering (SE) and Computers and Information Technology (CIT).
The agreements with these companies establish either particular short term partnerships related to the R&D projects carried out in partnership with the university (A&C) or medium and long term collaborations in which the SD_AC students are integrated through: documenting, hands-on training and research stages; solution development and implementing in shared research projects; specializations with logistic and financial support from the company; research activities in subjects proposed by the company.
