Honeywell opens new Industrial Automation Lab at Bucharest Polytechnic University

22 August 2022

American group Honeywell has launched an Industrial Automation Lab in Romania in conjunction with the University Politehnica of Bucharest’s Department of Automation and Computer Science. The project aims to help students build the technical skills and knowledge required to join, compete and succeed in the global industrial automation sector.

The lab is Honeywell’s third at the university in the last two years. It allows students to put classroom theories to the test by getting hands-on with the latest industrial automation technologies.

“With significant operations and investments throughout Romania and as a major employer in the country, Honeywell has a vested interest in nurturing next-generation talent and facilitating their transition from academia into the business world,” said Mihai Brana, Managing Director Honeywell Romania. “We’re delighted to partner once more with Romania’s leading technical institution – the University Politehnica of Bucharest – in this effort. By accruing deep expertise in Honeywell solutions and applying them to real-life scenarios, young people from across the country will be better prepared and equipped to join the industrial sector.”

Mihnea Costoiu, rector of the University Politehnica of Bucharest  added: “Our collaboration with Honeywell is already a tradition. As always, our community seeks to have a positive impact on society, and we know that the Industrial Automation Lab we are launching will help students have a far greater success on the labor market.”

Through the lab curricula, students can build logic for the ControlEdge devices, load it in the controller and test it within simulated environments. In the process, they can gain a better understanding of the behavior of controllers; learn more about how logic works; get experience connecting equipment such as sensors, transducers, indications, motors and pumps; and build a wide range of demo applications.  

Industrial Automation Lab courses will initially be taught by Honeywell engineering experts alongside representatives from the Department of Automation and Computer Science.
