Casimir Pulaski Radom University

Blended Intensive Programme (BIP)

Preface

Welcome to the Erasmus+ Automotive Academy (EAA), a non-profit educational initiative established in 2021 by Prof. Krzysztof Górski from the Casimir Pulaski University of Technology and Humanities in Radom (now known as Casimir Pulaski Radom University). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, student and staff mobility within the Erasmus+ programme was significantly limited during this period. Nevertheless, we remain committed to continuing our international cooperation with European partners by utilizing online learning opportunities. However, currently, starting from 2025, we are changing the format of the EAA, which will be implemented as part of Blended Intensive Programme (BIP). This will allow us to not only meet online during lectures but also participate in various activities in a face-to-face format in Radom. So far, the following institutions have been supporting the implementation of the EAA:

1. International Hellenic University (Thessaloniki, Greece)
2. Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies (Jelgava, Latvia)
3. Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (Vilnius, Lithuania)
4. Budapest University of Technology and Economics (Budapest, Hungary)
5. University of Craiova (Craiova, Romania)
6. Ivano-Frankivsk National Technical University of Oil and Gas (Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine)
7. University of Salerno (Salerno, Italy)
8. University of Oviedo (Gijón, Spain)
9. Casimir Pulaski Radom University (Radom, Poland)

In this edition of the EAA 2025, we are supported by new institutions, such as:

1. BETiS (Radom, Poland) – a company specializing in professional trainings for the Automotive industry experts.
2. Higher Education Institution  (Kaunas, Lithuania)
3. MAN Truck & Bus (Starachowice, Poland)
4. Autodrom Jastrząb (Jastrząb, Poland)

All the members of this partnership initiative educate students in the automotive industry, which has a significant impact on our national economies and requires specialized staff. Therefore, by working within an international group of European universities, we aim to combine our best educational practices and train skilled engineers who can succeed in all sectors of the automotive industry. We invite you to collaborate with us.

Students participating in the program will have the opportunity to consolidate and expand their knowledge and skills in automotive engineering. This will be made possible through collaboration with an international group of students, teachers, and industry automotive experts during online lecture sessions, as well as through practical laboratory classes and other activities organized by the Casimir Pulaski Radom University. This will be complemented by a program of additional activities that will promote the integration of BIP participants. Completion of the course will be confirmed with an appropriate certificate and 3 ECTS credits.

The poster of the BIP can be downloaded here. Pay attention to the slogan visible on this vehicle shown below, which I spotted (K. Górski) in Kaunas. It proudly displays the words… „Proud to be an engineer!” An engineer is a creator, so follow this path of creators, engineers, and automotive enthusiasts.
