Cooperation for innovation: Schneider Electric handed over technical equipment for the educational process
Modern education is impossible without the introduction of the latest technologies and the use of innovative equipment. Schneider Electric, a world leader in energy management and automation, has made a significant contribution to the development of educational infrastructure by transferring high-tech equipment for the educational process to one of the leading universities in Ukraine.
The transferred technical equipment includes state-of-the-art programmable logic controllers (PLCs), HMI panels and other innovative solutions that are widely used in industry. This equipment will allow students to:
- acquire practical skills in working with the latest computer-integrated technologies;
- study the principles of operation of modern automation systems;
- conduct experiments and laboratory tests using advanced equipment;
- get experience that is close to real production conditions.
This move is an important component of Schneider Electric's long-term strategy to support the education and development of young professionals in the energy, automation and digital technologies sectors. Thanks to this support, the university will be able to:
- update the material and technical base of laboratories;
- ensure the integration of theoretical knowledge with practical skills;
- encourage the development of research activities among students and teachers;
- conduct joint research projects and research.
Cooperation with Schneider Electric opens up new opportunities for students:
- participation in specialized trainings and workshops with the participation of the company's experts;
- possibility of internships in leading divisions of Schneider Electric;
- employment prospects in an international company after completing the training.
University teachers will also have access to the latest teaching materials and techniques, which will help improve the quality of teaching and improve professional competencies.
The administration of the Training Research Institute of energy, automation and energy saving and the teaching staff of the department of automation and robotic systems are sincerely grateful to Schneider Electric for the equipment and support provided. This is not just sponsorship, but a strategic partnership aimed at developing educational programs and training highly qualified specialists who will shape the future of the energy and industrial sectors of Ukraine.
