Rector of the University of Montenegro (UCG), professor Dr. Danilo Nikolic and Minister of Science Sanja Damjanovic, opened a co-working space for the needs of scholarship holders of doctoral studies today, in the building of Technical Faculties, equipped by the University of Montenegro in cooperation with the Ministry of Science. As stated from UCG, Nikolic emphasized the importance of this interactive space, in which, as he said, saw an investment of 100,000 euros, as it will establish a quality interaction among students of doctoral studies, their better acquaintance, exchange of knowledge, experience, as well as opening many possibilities.
"We have transformed the space of the reading room and library of technical faculties into this IT corner, which will be used by students of doctoral studies for a certain part of their research. The University of Montenegro plans to implement a number of similar projects this year. Beginning with the structure of the Central University Library reading room used by students of all levels, but also citizens. We finished last year's idea solution, the main project, and this year during the summer holiday we expect the realization of construction works. In addition, the University will allocate significant funds this year for the restoration of existing and the formation of new computer rooms in the faculties. We also plan to introduce the EDUROAM Wireless Academic Network that will enable Internet access for all students of our University," Nikolic said.
Minister Damjanovic said that funds for opening a new space were allocated through the Heric Project, which was supported by the Government of Montenegro.
"Last year, about 750,000 euros were allocated for scholarships for doctoral research, and we received 19 scholarships, out of which 16 are from the University of Montenegro. This year we also plan to increase this critical mass to another 15 students, because we know that human resources are our biggest capital. The opening of the interactive space is a step further. The funds for opening the co-working space have been allocated through the Heric project, which was also supported by the Government of Montenegro, and I am sure that in the future we will have even more such spaces, especially since we will soon open, together with the University of Montenegro, a Science and Technology Park, which will be a multipurpose space from which not only creative ideas will be built, but also the values that are the needs of our society," said the Minister of Science.
