Between May 23 and 26, 2018, Politehnica University Timişoara was the host of the International Conference on Computational Methods and Applications in Engineering (ICCMAE 2018), a WoS ranked first edition, organized by UPT in collaboration with Mississippi State University, USA .
The main objective of this conference is to intensify interdisciplinary international collaboration efforts between scientists and engineers in the US and Romania.
The conference, which brings together dozens of specialists from six countries, is the fruit of an older collaboration between the mathematics departments of the two universities and later between other teams, so the current conference is a natural continuation. The next edition will take place in the United States, then again in Romania, and so on.
In addition to these collaborations between research teams, there is also a memorandum signed between the two higher education institutions, as well as an Erasmus+ agreement through which Politehnica University Timisoara can send PhD students to the United States to finalize their theses.
