Description

Military Technical Academy (MTA), a polytechnic university for national defense system, has very good international relations with more than 40 universities from EU countries (France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Poland, Bulgaria, Portugal, Germany, etc) in the Erasmus+ Program framework. Every year 50-60 students and 20-30 staff from MTA take part in international mobilities in EU universities, and 15-20 students and 5-10 staff take part in international mobilities in MTA. The full potential of international relations of MTA Bucharest is yet to be achieved and that is why many other students and staff from MTA are interested in developing educational and scientific research projects with international partners from Norway. The main challenges of the international cooperation with partners from Norway are: develop and strengthen the bilateral cooperation between MTA and universities from Norway; the financial support obtained in Erasmus+ program or in other international financial mechanisms available at present in MTA is not enough to ensure the coverage of mobility expenses for the mobilities between MTA Bucharest and universities from Norway; there are areas of research and of education existing in MTA Bucharest and in universities from Norway which aren''t yet fully covered by the existing international partnerships (civil engineering, computer science, etc).
