CIGIP held a meeting with Calconut to identify possible lines of R&D collaboration and explore new opportunities to connect university and industry. Calconut is an international company that turns nuts and dried fruit into high-value food solutions.
Together with the heads of the Alcoy Campus Company Internship Office, the meeting also explored the possible participation of students from the UPV’s Master’s Degree in Organisational and Logistics Engineering (MUIOL) in internships at Calconut through its Calcogrow programme. Calcogrow is an initiative to develop talent in a real business environment, aimed at final-year bachelor’s or master’s students who want to start their careers in an international setting.
MUIOL trains professionals to analyse, model, design, implement and improve complex systems in order to bring productivity, quality, reliability and efficiency to organisations.
Through meetings like this one, CIGIP continues to promote knowledge transfer, R&D projects and collaboration with companies in industrial engineering and logistics.
