Teltonika Financed Laboratory Equipment for VU Faculty of Physics
On December 22, Teltonika IoT Group donated the necessary equipment for Vilnius University Faculty of Physics laboratories. It will be an addition to the existing equipment and will be useful for students who are working on their lab projects.
Better conditions for learning and creating
Prof. Robertas Grigalaitis says that this equipment will be most beneficial for students doing laboratory work: “The equipment varies in complexity; therefore, it can be used by students in both bachelor’s and master’s degree programmes. We will also use the equipment for certain research activities, which will help us to raise the level of research.”
Ernestas Zdaniauskis, Vice President for Innovation and Business Development of Teltonika IoT Group, also emphasizes the value of the donated equipment: “This equipment will contribute to the learning base and will create an even more favourable environment for students to create and grow. New, advanced instruments will offer more opportunities for them to turn their ideas in telecommunications and electronics into reality. I believe that investing in education and science is essential if we want to stimulate the knowledge economy.”
The laboratories at the Faculty of Physics play a vital role in the learning process. Hence, some of the latest equipment provided for the university will help to ensure that future electronics and telecommunications technology professionals receive the highest quality education possible.
Cooperation as an investment
Both the Teltonika company group and the University seek to create the conditions for gaining as much knowledge and experience as possible and provide students with a space to conduct new research. Therefore, in May 2021, Teltonika IoT Group and Vilnius University have signed a cooperation agreement to develop an even closer relationship between science and business and improve the quality of studies.
Teltonika and VU expect that their partnership will be a significant step in improving the quality of study programs, ensuring better student internships, and training highly qualified specialists at Vilnius University.
To support the most motivated students, Teltonika has launched a scholarship programme. This year, 24 students at Vilnius University received Teltonika’s €3 000 scholarships. As many as nine scholarships were allocated to the Electronics and Telecommunications Technologies programme at the Faculty of Physics.
