Last week, a delegation of UAS Technikum Wien visited the University of Namibia (UNAM)<\/strong><\/a> in Windhoek to officially kick off for the partnership and explore opportunities for academic and research cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The visit offered a valuable opportunity to connect with UNAM\u2019s Executive Management, academic departments and researchers, and to gain insights into the institutions\u2019s strategic priorities, programmes and research strengths. Across an intensive programme, the delegation explored potential collaborations in areas including computing and digitalisation, green hydrogen and renewable energy, materials science, biotechnology, healthcare and rehabilitation sciences<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Namibia’s Agenda for Green Hydrogen and Renewable Energy Research<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A particular highlight was the exchange around Namibia\u2019s green hydrogen agenda and renewable energy research<\/strong>, as well as discussions on how our institutions can work together through joint research, academic exchange, knowledge transfer and future collaborative projects. The programme also went beyond academic exchange. Campus tours, the SANORD Annual Conference, the UNAM Cultural Festival and insights into life in Windhoek provided opportunities to experience the vibrant academic and cultural environment of Namibia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\u201eThe visit marked an important first step in building a lasting bridge between UNAM and Technikum. We return with new connections, inspiring conversations and many ideas for future collaboration \u2014 and look forward to turning these first discussions into concrete opportunities for students, researchers, and both institutions.\u201c<\/div>

Managing Director, UAS Technikum Wien<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In addition to Managing Director Florian Eckkrammer<\/a>, representatives from UAS Technikum Wien included Agnes Kriz<\/a> (International Office), Erich Markl<\/a> and Daniel Bell<\/a> (Faculty of Industrial Engineering), and Harald Wahl<\/a> and Thomas Mandl<\/a> (Faculty of Computer Science & Applied Mathematics).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A very special thank you<\/strong> goes to the UNAM team for welcoming us so warmly, for showing us the beautiful and enriching diversity of your country, and for organising everything so diligently and thoughtfully. From arranging the programme to bringing together the right people for the right conversations, you made this visit an incredibly valuable experience.

<\/strong>A promising start to a partnership that is expected to give rise to many joint ideas, projects, and encounters in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
