The purpose and tasks of the project:
The goal of the project is to create a single vertically integrated complex system of innovative development of the technosphere of ecosystems with a full cycle (study - research - production - operation/maintenance - disposal), which allows to implement a fundamentally new approach to environmental safety planning for all objects of the technosphere at all stages life cycle A synergistic effect should be achieved with the results of Tempus projects in the field of green technologies and innovation support: 159359-ES- JPHES UNI4INNO (Strengthening the triangle of knowledge through the creation of innovative offices in higher education institutions of Ukraine), 530270-UK-JPCR GREENCO ("Green" comp. uting and communications), 516911-DE-JPCR REGENLAW (Development of regional interdisciplinary postgraduate studies in the field of energy and environmental law) and others.
Project goals:
- creation of an international network of innovation centers in the technosphere of ecosystems (CIDECS) in Ukraine;
- development of the CIDECS international web platform for the development and commercialization of projects in the field of eco-innovations. Integration of the platform with networks of Tempus projects;
- development of a new comprehensive master's program (6 main modules) for the specialty "Micro- and nanotechnology in the technosphere of ecosystems" for 6 partner universities in Ukraine;
- development of a professional development program (4 modules) in the field of eco-engineering.
Areas of activity under the project:
- establishment of CIDECS centers;
- verification of CIDECS centers;
- professional development for center employees;
- development of the CIDECS web platform;
- establishment of basic teams; - improvement of English language skills of project team members;
- development and implementation of a new comprehensive master's program (6 main modules) for the specialty "Micro- and nanotechnology in the technosphere of ecosystems" for 6 partner universities in Ukraine;
- development and implementation of the advanced training program (4 modules) in the field of eco-engineering;
- dissemination of information about the project and network cooperation;
- trainings for the purpose of professional development "on request" of four ISMs.
Obtained results:
1. CIDECS centers are created and function effectively together with the web platform.
2. A new integrated master's program in the specialty "Micro- and nanotechnologies in the technosphere of ecosystems" was introduced for 6 partner universities in Ukraine.
3. A professional development program (4 modules) in the field of eco-engineering has been implemented.
4. Common results of the project.
