Trenčín, Slovakia – 30 June 2026 – Virtual Reality Media (VRM) was pleased to welcome Dean Prof. Ing. Vladimír Kutiš, PhD., together with Assoc. Prof. Ing. Andrej Babinec, PhD., Vice Dean for Cooperation with Industry, from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology (FEI) of the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava (STU) for a working meeting focused on strengthening cooperation between academia and industry.

The discussions explored opportunities for collaboration in the education of future engineers, student internships, diploma and research projects, and applied research and development. Particular attention was given to emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, software engineering, modelling, simulation, and immersive technologies, and their growing role in modern engineering and defence applications.

Both institutions expressed a shared interest in building a long-term partnership that connects academic excellence with industrial experience and contributes to the development of highly qualified engineering talent.

“We see close cooperation with universities as an investment in the future—not only in terms of innovation, but also in developing the next generation of engineers. By working with FEI STU, we hope to provide students with meaningful practical experience while creating opportunities to identify and attract talented graduates to VRM. At the same time, collaboration in applied research and development can help us explore innovative concepts and address long-term development challenges that are often difficult to pursue within the constraints of day-to-day commercial projects. We highly appreciate the opportunity to exchange ideas with FEI STU and look forward to identifying concrete areas where our expertise can complement each other,” said a representative of VRM.
