The strength of the German economy is the backbone of the technology-driven small- and midsize enterprises (SMEs). SME focus on small but very advanced niches and can be world-market leaders in their domain. To provide solutions to customers, they form SME clusters. A very important driver for successful technology regions are industry-university-cooperations [1] with a focus on applied sciences [2]...
The current state of the development of education in Ukraine in the field of information technology is analyzed. The ways of improving the efficiency of the educational training in the field of information technology are suggested.
In this paper, we present the first results of the on-going Erasmus+ project for collaborative development of curricula in nanoelectronics. This project aims at transferring knowledge between higher education institutions in three European countries — Bulgaria, Italy and Norway and institutions in Partner Countries — China, Malaysia, India and Israel to modernise university curricula in nanoelectronics...
This paper deals with our positive experience about project-based pedagogy with the help of industrial partners to teach signal and image processing. During one semester, students are working in small groups of 6 to 8 students, supervised by two teachers or engineers working in a small or a big com pany. Various topics are proposed each year such as radar pro cessing, mobile communication system or...
The PROMIS Project is an ongoing EU Tempus Project for setting up ISC (Informatics as a Second Competence) Master's degrees in Central Asia. We are more specifically concerned with ensuring the vocational aspect of studies and tightening the relationships between companies and universities in this project. To meet these goals we mainly propose to base the curricula organization on both reverse teaching...
The paper presents results achieved through knowledge and experience exchange in the field of professionalization of computer science studies. The results were obtained during Leonardo da Vinci Mobility project titled “Professionalization of bachelor's degree studies in computer science in Lublin University of Technology (UIKI)”. The main aim of the project was to share ideas and to develop methods...
The indent of this study is in the Continuum-focused Methodology of Information Systems Research and utilization of outcomes of research and development as continuums of subjects: understanding; innovating; demonstrating; building; testing; improving; transforming; experiencing; evaluating; implementing; and disseminating. The main research finding of this study is that continuums and path dependency...
Over the last 20 years the European Association for Education in Electrical and Information Engineering (EAEEIE) has proven itself to be a strong organization aiming to support Electrical and Information Engineering (EIE) education across Europe. EAEEIE members participated in several EU projects (i.e. ELLEIEC, THEIERE) with recognized contribution to EIE education process. Its new Strategic Alignment...
The paper argues that the Chinese standardisation system should not be perceived as a threat to international ICT standardisation, and that the rather more relaxed attitude of the EU is the best way forward. It claims that a co-operation based approach to the increasingly powerful relative newcomer is much more appropriate than one based on competition. These arguments are based on a discussion of...
Steady growth in the world economy, international shipping market is clearly alive, international crew associated with the labour market has thrived, international labour market for seafarers is a secondary market in the international shipping market, and the international shipping market is closely related to the development of the world economy, rapid economic growth, shipping volume is bound to...
Starting in 1987 with 6 students the Postgraduate Programme Renewable Energy (PPRE) has developed to an accredited master program with almost 400 actively networking alumni from more than 80 countries. Fields of study are wind energy, solar electric and solar thermal, energy meteorology, hydropower, storage technology, biomass and economics of Renewable Energy. The Programme1 aims at engineers and...
the professional sports leagues in America are fallen into the functional strategic alliance. But these in America are limited companies. Both leagues are owned their teams/clubs altogether, which managed leagues in dynamic way. Limited companies are basic form of enterprise for both team/clubs. A corporate governance structure is widely used in leagues as well as in teams/clubs. Both leagues' ownership...
For a single university it is difficult to have sufficient expertise of all sub-specialisations in biomedical engineering in order to provide 4th level education at an adequate level. Therefore a consortium of six universities has combined their knowledge and specific expertise into a 2-year European Master's in biomedical engineering: the Universities of Groningen (The Netherlands), Aachen (Germany),...
Official European statistics of education indicate that the number of students entering tertiary education have significantly increased between 2000 and 2006, and indicate a trend that will continue. However, this increase is not reflected in every field of study; computer science and engineering are among those that have decreased each year, evidence of a decline of interest in following this career...
Human capital has become a central element in the innovation debate, but in the discourse on international mobility, Eastern European ??catching-up countries?? are usually afflicted with a brain drain that is inconsistent with their economic development. The case study of Estonia shows that to raise the competitive edge of companies, it is critical to embed internationally renowned and networked specialists...
During the past 20 years the scope and complexity of engineering work and responsibilities have dramatically changed, and in the modern companies engineers perform many management activities. This trend had a major impact on engineering education and a great number of programs in engineering and technology management were started all over the world. However, from the analysis of several programs some...
