Students from BIMeTIC Master visit PLOCAN

Students from the Institute for Technological Development and Innovation in Communications (IDeTIC) of the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC) actually attending the University Master in ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) Solutions for Welfare and Environment (BIMeTIC) visited the land facilities of PLOCAN, accompanied by two teachers, as part of the course contents.

The main objective of the visit was to show the students the facilities, the capabilities, the lines of work and the scientific-technological activities developed by PLOCAN as a potential job opportunity linked to the field of ICT with marine and maritime uses.

The BIMeTIC Master focuses on the development of technologies associated to these networks and its uses in order to improve the quality of life and the environmental management, which is directly related to the new strategies of the Industry 4.0 (Smart Factories) and the new EU directives related to the Green Technology & Economy (environmentally responsible companies), the Circular Technology (the paradigm of a lower power consumption, waste reduction and reuse of materials) and the Blue Technology & Economy (efficient and sustainable exploitation of marine resources).
