A fost lansat programul international „STEM Scholars Program”, de catre New York Academy of Sciences si United Technologies.
Conform programului, initiativa internationala, mentori STEM din cadrul UPB pot asigura sesiuni de referinta in domeniile STEM, exclusiv on-line, prin intermediul platformei programului.
Colaborarea aduce multiple beneficii:
- cresterea gradului de internationalizare UPB,
- initierea de noi parteneriate cu actori cheie din domeniile STEM (la o simpla cautare, am gasit un grant NSF ce a finantat o astfel de initiativa: https://www.nsf.gov/
awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID= 1223284), - nu in ultimul rand – promovarea educatiei in STEM in context preuniversitar la nivel international, punand astfel bazele unor noi premise/proiecte pentru integrarea/stimularea elevilor, viitori studenti UPB (din tara).
