Agreements and partnerships
The Euromed University of Fez (UEMF) and “ Dassault Systèmes ”, one of the largest companies in the world in the field of 3D design software, digital engineering and the virtual universe for innovation, sign a partnership agreement on April 30 aimed at creating the largest university 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 the UEMF next September. This new school, totally dedicated to artificial intelligence, will be the first engineering school of this type in Morocco and also in the Euro-Mediterranean and African areas. The School in question will be supported by a high-level research center using data generation technologies, cyber security, robotics and cobotics, big data, machine and deep learning, neural networks, blockchains, image recognition, voice and motion. These digital technologies will be exploited for applications in the fields of mobile technologies, medicine, renewable energies, agro-industry, automobile, aeronautics, the banking and financial sector and other sectors. industrial (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 exploit Dassault Systèmes’ “3DEXPERIENCE”: a teaching and research platform – an innovation which will be open to all students and researchers in the Kingdom and African countries. It will be connected to the 3D printing platform, already set up at the University, and also to the robotics and cobotics infrastructure of the UEMF.
