Universities of the Future Visit - Train the Trainers’ event

The Polytechnic Institute of Porto (P.Porto) is leading a new international project to show what might become the University of the Future. The Universities of the Future Erasmus Knowledge Alliances program has received almost one million euros from the European Commission for the next two years, to map out and implement a new version of a more open, cross-cutting, flexible and multidisciplinary course, which proves to be capable of bridging the gap between universities and the “real world“.

The educational program, which is being outlined, will focus on industry 4.0 topics, build upon the processes of industrialization and competitiveness based on a new digital culture.

On the 13th of September the group of instructors and industrial stockholders visited CISTER facilities in order to get insight about the latest advancements by CISTER during the last few years on the area of Industry 4.0.
