Connecting with practice
The department's Third Mission plays a crucial role in fostering direct connections between academic knowledge and real-world practices.
Our commitment to "Connecting with Practice" aims to establish a dynamic relationship between research, education, and professional environments. We strive to contribute to economic, social, and cultural development through partnerships with businesses, institutions, and communities.
This strategic alignment ensures that the knowledge generated within the university is not only theoretical but also applicable and beneficial to the professional sector.
By facilitating exchanges, internships, collaborative projects, and knowledge transfer, we help shape students and researchers into key societal players capable of tackling contemporary challenges while driving innovation and growth in their respective fields.
