Exchange with international partner universities

Bernhard Dollensky, Chief Operating Officer of IMC Krems, visited HAN University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands as part of his staff mobility (a training placement at a higher education institution, a company or another relevant workplace). During his visit, he engaged in in-depth exchanges on digital transformation, artificial intelligence, sustainability and cooperation with industry partners.

In addition, he took part in an extensive programme at FH Münster, which placed a particular focus on sustainability, industry partners, innovative building solutions and digitalisation.

Both HAN University of Applied Sciences and FH Münster are part of the UP University Alliance, which also includes IMC Krems. “The mutual exchange proved to be extremely valuable, as challenges and solution approaches are similar across national borders and can now be pursued further in a targeted, topic-specific manner,” Dollensky explains.
