TheEuromed University of Fes (UEMF) and « Dassault Systèmes », one of the world's largest companies in 3D design software, digital engineering and virtual worlds for innovation, will sign on April 30 an agreement to create at UEMF the largest university digital engineering platform in Africa. This platform will be an important tool for the School of Digital Engineering and Artificial Intelligence (EIDIA) which will open at UEMF next September. This new school, entirely dedicated to artificial intelligence, will be the first engineering school of its kind in Morocco and in the Euro-Mediterranean and African space. The school will be supported by a high-level research center using data generation technologies, cybersecurity, robotics and cobotics, big data, machine and deep learning, neural networks, blockchains, image, voice and motion recognition. These digital technologies will be used for applications in mobile technologies, medicine, renewable energies, agro-industry, automotive, aeronautics, the banking and financial sector and other industrial sectors (Industry 4.0) using digital technologies and artificial intelligence. An industrial version of Dassault Systèmes will also be implemented later on the UEMF campus.
This center will use Dassault Systèmes' «3DEXPERIENCE»: a teaching and research-innovation platform that will be open to all students and researchers of the Kingdom and African countries. It will be connected to the 3D printing platform already in place at the University, and also to UEMF's robotics and cobotics infrastructure.
