The American multinational Emerson bets for the talent generated by the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT).
The general manager of the company in Spain and Portugal, Jesús María Guisado, has signed with the rector, Alejandro Díaz, the creation of the UPCT-Emerson chair, through which the company will provide practical training and skills in the technologies of 4.0 industry to UPCT students awarded by the company.
"The revolution of digitalization, big data and sensorization in the industry demand of leading engineers in the handling of new technologies", explained Guisado.
The company will grant scholarships to students who have just completed their university studies and others who have not yet completed it to train them within the activities carried out by the company in process control and industrial instrumentation.
"Emerson is a technology company that believes in talent and innovation, adjusting perfectly to our profile", said the rector of the Polytechnic.
The company has been collaborating with the UPCT for years.
"They have donated software for our students to use the same programs with which they work in the big industries, they provided us with sensorization devices and a large part of the pilot instrumentation plant that we have at the Industrial School and participate selflessly in workshops formation, "said the director of the chair, Francisco Ortiz.
At the offices of Emerson in Cartagena and Madrid, alumni of the UPCT are already working and the chair will open a new channel of access to the company for students.
"Most of those who do internships with us end up employed in one of our branches or in other companies in the sector," said the head of Emerson in the Peninsula.
