The cooperation between Hydro Extrusion Hungary Ltd. and Alba Regia Faculty of Technology, Óbuda University continues to expand. Environmental protection is a priority for both organisations. Their ambition is also reflected in the reinterpretation of the tools released by the company, strengthening the practice-oriented nature of engineering courses at the higher education institution.
In line with the circular economy approach, the surplus machines that appear in one place and are taken out of production are reborn within the walls of the educational institution during the mechanical and electrical engineering courses as raw materials for a project task. In an era of scarcity of raw materials, this cooperation has highlighted a possible way of creating the conditions for practical training.
The cooperation agreement was signed by Gábor Veres, factory manager on behalf of Hydro Extrusion Ltd. and by Csabáné Budavári, chair of the board of trustees on behalf of Alba Regia Foundation for Higher Technical Education, supporting Alba Regia Faculty of Technology, Óbuda University. Nagyné Dr. Éva Hajnal, Deputy Dean of Research representing the University Faculty also participated the programme.
The relationship between the company and the higher education institution will continue in the near future. Besides the dual training further training programmes, joint research and development activities will be done.
