Final Meeting in Maputo

During the last project meeting in Maputo (07.-11. November 2022), the final event of the ProSeM project took place at the Universidade Eduardo Mondlane (UEM) on 9th of November 2022. The final event was held in a hybrid form (online and in presence). The project results were presented and several talks were given, including one online keynote talk by Professor Joey Jansen van Vuuren of the Tshwane University of Technology, South Africa. We wish to thank our partners from UEM for the perfect organisation of the final event!

3rd Coordination Meeting at UPM

Mobility measures funded by the Erasmus+ / KA 107 program were used for another successful coordination meeting at the Universidade Pedagógica de Maputo (UPM) in July 2022.

2nd Coordination Meeting at UEM

The coordination meeting at the Universidade Eduado Mondlane (UEM), which was originally planned for March, was taking place at November 08.-12., 2021. Important contents of the meeting were: Discussion of the current status of the new modules, the description of the modules and planning of activities for 2022. During the meeting, there was also a tour through the laboratory for students of the UEM.

The working devices (Laptops, etc.) provided by the project (5.000,00 € in the first year of the project) were additionally comprehensively funded by the Mozambique Community Network (MCNet), a partner of UEM in the ProSeM project from the business sector. This means that 25 fully equipped workstations as well as presentation equipment (beamer, whiteboard) are now available for the training of future students in the new master’s program.

1st Coordination Meeting at UEM

The cooperation of the project successfully continued with the coordination meeting at the University Eduardo Mondlane (UEM) in Maputo (March 09-13, 2020). During the meeting, a workshop was organized (March 10, 2020) to consolidate and establish new contacts with representatives from the economy, the public sector, academia and research.

The Mozambique Community Network (MCNet; business) as well as the Instituto Nacional de Comunicações de Moçambique (INCM, public sector) were visited. In the scope of this visit, project objectives were reported and cooperation opportunities were discussed (e.g. in the form of internship opportunities for future students).

The workshop at March 10, 2020 was organized with the UEM Computer Science Center (Centro de Informática da Universidade Eduardo Mondlane, CIUEM) and representatives of other UEM faculties (Faculdade de Ciências, FC and Departamento de Matemática e Informática, DMI). The educational objectives of the new specialization were discussed.
