Description
The Chair's main objective is to contribute to the growth of a new generation of engineers, capable of making technological choices that promote human development, with a view to social, environmental and economic sustainability.
The Chair pursues its objectives through an integrated system of research, higher education, and institutional partnerships with other universities, local and national government institutions, international organisations (in particular UNESCO ), NGOs and civil society actors, other UNESCO Chairs, and private companies.
The activities of the Chair are developed along the following three main lines of work :
- engineering education - capacity building
- applied engineering research - knowledge sharing
- institutional partnerships
The educational activities supported by the Chair are spread over three levels and include undergraduate and postgraduate studies in engineering, as well as lifelong learning projects.
