Partnership Agreement between the Euromed University of Fes and Dassault Systèmes

The Euromed University of Fes (UEMF) and Dassault Systèmes, one of the world's largest companies in the field of 3D design software, digital engineering, and the virtual universe for innovation, will sign a partnership agreement on April 30th aimed at creating the largest academic digital engineering platform in Africa at UEMF. This platform will be one of the important tools for the School of Digital Engineering and Artificial Intelligence (EIDIA), which will open its doors at UEMF next September. This new school, entirely dedicated to artificial intelligence, will be the first engineering school of its kind in Morocco and also in the Euro-Mediterranean and African space. The school in question 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, and image, voice, and motion recognition. These digital technologies will be leveraged for applications in the fields of mobile technologies, medicine, renewable energy, agribusiness, 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 utilize Dassault Systèmes' "3DEXPERIENCE": a teaching and research-innovation platform that will be open to all students and researchers from the Kingdom and African countries. It will be connected to the 3D printing platform, already set up at the University, and also to UEMF's robotics and cobotics infrastructure.
