Manlio Scalzilli, Founder and CEO of the Italian company Alphard, visited the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute to discuss new Erasmus+ programmes, study visits, internships, and joint international projects with the university administration.
In particular, the discussion centred on:
expanding Kyiv Polytechnic’s participation in international educational projects and Erasmus+ programmes;
affording more opportunities to students, lecturers, and university staff through internships, study visits, and professional growth;
developing new forms of partnerships with universities and educational institutions in Italy;
exchanging European experience in professional training, combining quality education with close collaboration with the business community;
undertaking joint international initiatives in the coming years.
The agreements achieved open up more opportunities for academic mobility, joint European projects, and the adoption of international best practices in the educational process at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute.
It is worth noting too that since 2019, Alphard has been continuously operating in the field of international higher technical education, coordinating the academic mobility programmes with European educational institutions that enhance the potential of young people and a dialogue between the world of education and the world of work.
