Development of mechanical engineering (design, technology and production management)

Every year CEEPUS is awarding a network of outstanding quality, awarded by the Joint Committee of Ministers. Through an external panel of experts, using various evaluation criteria, CEEPUS determines the best of many great networks. 2025 experts selected the network : "Development of mechanical engineering (design, technology and production management) as an essential base for progress in the area of small and medium companies’ logistics - research, preparation and implementation of joint programs of study in the aspect of Industry 4.0.” This network is coordinated by Prof. Stanislaw Legutko, Poznan University of Technology, Institute of Mechanical Technology, who does his excellent job together with his 32 partners. Small and medium industrial companies (SMC), according to the opinion of many experts, are the base of developing countries’ economies. It concerns especially the economy of Central Europe countries, which formerly had nonmarket economy. Development of the mentioned industrial enterprises nowadays depends on the proper level of mechanical engineering (design, manufacturing engineering and production management) and on proper logistics. Therefore, the aim of the network with 32 partners is to utilize experiences and knowledge of partner institutions and information exchange between the partners. The investigations carried out in the framework of the network will concern the design of machines, their technology, production management and industrial logistics, also in the aspect of Industry 4.0 including some special domains.

In today's rapidly changing world, it is crucial to comprehend how (human) cognition functions and how it interacts with the ever-changing technological and societal environments.

We are at the forefront of exploring the fascinating interplay between cognitive systems and their engagement with the world, be it social, creative, cultural, technological, or otherwise. Our network aims at exploring how these components influence and shape each another by jointly doing research, teaching, and applying insights in/from the fields of cognitive science, knowledge studies/technologies, and innovation.

What our scholars have to say
Iva Vujovic
Exchange student in Vienna
I learned a lot from some professors about topics that aren't really talked about much in my home University. And even when we do mention them, it's more theoretical and harder to understand than it is through practical learning, which we did in Vienna.
Milica Stankovic, PhD
Professor from Nis, Serbia
During my stay in Ljubljana, I had the opportunity to give lectures in the area of Circular Economy and global challenges. The multidisciplinarity of the topic contributed to a great result and an excellent discussion with students from study fields of biology, biotechnology, environmental protection and food technology on the topic of the circular economy. I am sure that this CEEPUS teaching mobility is the first step towards a future successful cooperation.
Dr. Gabriella Vöő
Exchange teacher in Olomouc
There was a large student turnout, the students were interested and they participated in the discussions. I had conversations with colleagues about academic and administrative matters and we also discussed possibilities for joint research projects in the future.
