Description

The project is needed in order to develop cooperation with entities from Norway, and we, as a HEI of Life science area, we are looking for partnership within this area in order to provide to our students the opportunity of professional training in professional companies. Our partner is such a partner, one of the most important actors in the field of agriculture and forestry. Our partner is able to provide professional training for our students from different study programs, starting from forestry, land measurements and agriculture. It is highly important for our students to get professional qualification and training in such companies, facilitating the insertion on the labor market more easily helping us to create professionals. The students will be from all cycles of study, from bachelor to PhD. Our priority is to form professionals, and an abroad experience in a professional company is the best choice to complete an academic profile of a future professional within the mentioned above fields. Meanwhile, the Partner company receives students with good academic background, mastering their field, thus it enriches the experiences bringing into its activity the academic component and it reaches another level too, being in a partnership with one of the most important Life science university in Romania and not only.
In addition to the project of becoming a more sustainable partner for the future of our students and partners, the strategy of internationalization, which is a priority of the general strategy of the university, points out the importance of widening the connections and the relations abroad, highlighting the priorities in becoming also an international reference point in the Life science area.

Summary of project results

We started this project with the NW partner, a private company, intending to develop the activities for staff and students in the field of forestry, in order to contribute to the planting of trees and the connected activities and consolidating the relations between the two partners. Unfortunately the pandemic context affected the planning of the mobilities for both entities.

one incoming mobility and eleven outgoing mobilities.

The impact was a good one and we realized after the staff mobility , outgoing and incoming, that we had to develop and extend in more fields the activities with our partner and schedule from very long time before everything, especially in terms of finding accommodation for future students.
From the staff exchanges we identified modern procedures in our fields of activities, we really have seen at what level NW is developed, how are the realities related to the modernization of the society, prices and conditions of living there.

Summary of bilateral results

For us it was very important to have a donor project partner, with a very important expertise in the relevant fields of our cooperation, having an experience of more than 15 years in the field, we decided to move forward with our cooperation, even if we did not manage to finalize the proposed mobilities. The pandemic context affected very hard the company and we decided to carry on in 2024 with other projects.
