On 11 July 2024, the AGH University has concluded an agreement on cooperation with Jacobs, a company delivering technical consultancy services in key nuclear projects in Poland and in the world.
The agreement entails cooperation on research, traineeships, workshops, and study visits for AGH University students and graduates.
The parties to the agreement were represented by the Vice-Rector for Student Affairs, Professor Rafał Dańko, and Jacobs’ Project Director in the Nuclear Industry in Poland, Gareth Vaughan.
“The cooperation with Jacobs provides a number of benefits to our university, particularly in a field as relevant now as the education of our students on nuclear energy. The company’s expertise will surely expand the perspective of those studying energy transformation. We hope that our experience in research areas related to nuclear energy will be a valuable contribution for the company,” Professor Dańko said.
“It’s an important event for us in Jacobs to sign a cooperation agreement with one of the best technical universities not only in Poland but also in the Central Europe, one that shares our goal of educating staff supporting the Polish energy transformation in the future,” Gareth Vaughan emphasised.
Jacobs is a market-leading international engineering company delivering a number of services in technical consulting, project management, research, and many more. The company provides consultancy services to clients from the nuclear sector in the areas of new investments, operation and decommissioning of nuclear power plants, waste management, nuclear safety, as well as small modular reactors (SMRs) and nuclear fusion. Jacobs provides a vast range of professional services to the public and private sectors. In Poland, the company has two seats, one in Warsaw and one in Krakow. The team supporting nuclear energy-related projects in Poland has 60 members and is continuously growing.
