Erasmus+ KA2 CBHE: Developing Interdisciplinary Postgraduate Programmes and Strengthening Research Networks in Geoinformation Technologies in Armenia and Kyrgyzstan (GeoTAK) (EUPOM110)
The project consortium is composed of 3 universities, the National Mapping Agency and the Ministry of Education and Science of Kyrgyzstan, 3 universities, the Cadastre State Committee and the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Armenia, and 4 European universities with departments specialized in complementary fields of GIT.
The specific objectives of the project are:
• To identify research and development needs of Kyrgyzstan and Armenia in the field of Geoinformation Technologies.
• To create a Research Node in GIT per partner country to promote and harmonise collaborative innovation projects and joint research lines.
• To improve and/or update research laboratories of GIT.
• To train trainers from partner countries in relevant topics of GIT that have special interest for regional development of innovation and environmental protection.
• To provide teachers and managers from HEI’s in partner countries knowledge and skills in transversal topics of higher education, such as quality assurance practices, innovation and entrepreneurship, curricula development by competences and learning outcomes, and others following Bologna process standards.
• To create interdisciplinary postgraduate programmes (at master and PhD levels) that enhance the potential of GIT in different areas and degrees and focus research outputs on contemporary problems at regional and global scales.
• To foster and strength the cooperation between university and industry in those topics identified as critical for the sustainable development of the partner countries.
• To exchange and share experiences and perspectives between two countries, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan, with lacks and potential in technical research development and similar recent historical background, that are facing socio-economic challenges and need to stimulate new strategies in research and development.
