Among the economic partners participating in these meetings, we can mention: ABB, Electrica, Rompetrol, Enel, Adrem, Nuclearelectrica, EoN, Schneider Electric, Romelectro, Vinci, Tiab, Veolia, Engie, Hidroelectrica, Honeywell, Siemens and others.
Throughout the events, the Faculty of Energy Engineering participates with its own boot at OPEN DOORS DAY, which involves both visits to laboratories or amphitheaters for a better knowledge of the study offer and career prospects, as well as the possibility for high school students willing to take part in some courses for a day in the STUDENT FOR A DAY section.
Internships and traineeships for students, elaboration of diploma and dissertation thesis, lectures of the representatives of the economic environment within the bachelor's and master's degree programs
The partnerships of the Faculty of Energy Engineering with a lot of companies are materialized through internships, traineeships, the elaboration of diploma and dissertation thesis with topics required by the needs of the economic environment. At the same time, they are the main employers of our graduates.
