A new working group aims to strengthen co-operation between Profibus International and universities and technical colleges to achieve improved teaching of Profibus and Profinet.

Profibus International has set up a new research and education working group (TC5/WG7).

The goal of this working group consists of strengthening the co-operation of Profibus International with universities and technical colleges to achieve improved teaching of the automation technologies Profibus and Profinet in education.

The activities of the working group include: providing information material and presentation slides for education; information and training events for teaching faculty and lab engineers as well as regular workshops on selected topics; preparation and supply of standard lab experiments; partner exchange for companies and universities on a regional basis; research activities beyond the university about the topics of industrial communication; and setup of an international network.

With the appointment of two chairmen of the work group - Prof Dr Karl-Heinz Niemann (Technical University Hanover) and Prof Dr Frank Schiller (Technical University Munich) - Profibus International is ensuring good contact with universities and technical colleges exist from the outset.
