International Academic Cooperation The Department cooperates with several universities around the world (Berlin, Freiburgh, Gent, Manchester, Wien, Schefield, Pereira, Istambul, Seged, Bukurest) with which it exchanges the teaching staff, students and defines research projects of common interest. Furthermore, numerous visiting professors from Oakland, Sidney and Manchester Universities often teach at the Department. Also, the Department teaching staff often give visiting lectures at other universities in the country and abroad. 6. Business Activities in the Science – Technology Park The teaching staff at the Department is the founder of one of the oldest companies in the Science-Technology Park at The Faculty of Technical Sciences which today functions under the name PT-RK ltd. and employs over 200 engineers on projects with the leading partners at the world market in the field of consumer electronics and embedded systems. The company laboratories, with their up to date technology and research topics, participate in the scientific research work at the Department, allowing the students, via grant programmes, to go through additional practice work in modern technologies in the leading international companies. 7. Publishing The Computing and Control Engineering Department is one of the founders of the international journal called ‘Computer Science and Information Systems (ComSIS, www.comsis.org). The journal has, since 2008, been included in the Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Reports and the SCI Expanded List. 8. Programme of Economic Support The Department has, up to this day, carried out several hundred projects in close cooperation with national companies: Sintelon, Potisje, Polet, VTI, Iritel, EI-Pupin, DKTS, NIS, Srbijagas, Viktorija grupa, The Geodesy Institute, Sarsberg Srbija, PC Water and Sewage Company. 9. International Cooperation The Department is well known for its international cooperation.
