Cooperation between Bulgaria and Serbia
The Technical University was among the first in the country to join the international Erasmus Education Program in 1999. More than 1000 students, 100 trainees, 650 lecturers and 200 administrative staff members have participated in the program since the 2012 – 2013 academic year and the funds administered amount to more than 3,3 mil Euro.
In 2014 the Erasmus Program was transformed into Erasmus+ Program
Erasmus + is a leading program for education, study and internship in EU, comprising mobility of students, lecturers and administrative staff, regulating the European partnership among universities and other key partners from public and private sectors. The program encourages the establishment of a united European educational space for common research activities, innovations, economic growth, labor market and intercultural dialog.
For the new program period of 2014 – 2020, the TU – Sofia was granted the ERASMUS UNIVERSITY CHARTER (EUC), which provides a common framework for realization of European cooperation in higher education.
Erasmus+ finances students’ mobility for study and/or internship in a foreign university/company, as well as activities connected with transnational mobility of academic and administrative staff and various projects.
​
University of Belgrade signed the Inter-institutional agreement with the Technical University in Sofia about mobility for students, lectures and administrative staff this year, and 2 students from Faculty for Traffic and Transport are currently studying on Faculty of Telecommunications in Sofia.
I'm Nemanja Mihajlovic and I graduated at University of Belgrade, Faculty for Traffic and Transport, Department for Telecommunication traffic and networks with thesis "Implementation wireless sensor networks in parking systems". I am enrolled on master studies at the same department.
Currently, I am doing research work at Technical University of Sofia on Faculty of Telecommunications and I'm a part of Erasmus exchange programme. Also, I work here on Web-based computer-aided design.
My research relates to the development of Arduino controller with different types of sensors which are used in parking systems.
My name is Nemanja Adamovic and I am a senior bachelor student at the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Engineering, University of Belgrade.
Currently I am an Erasmus plus student on exchange here at the Faculty of Telecommunications, Technical University of Sofia.
My work here are "Computer-aided design of digital communication circuits with VHDL" and "Computer Networks and Terminals" as well as work on my thesis "IEEE 802.11 standard in intelligent transportation systems - IEEE 802.11p standard". With help from my mentor here, professor Galia Marinova, I started some project on developing codes for Gold sequence generators using VHDL.
The University of Niš maintains rich bilateral and multilateral collaboration with many academic and research institutions and associations from the country and abroad. Also, the University of Niš participates in many international programs such as: ERASMUS MUNDUS, ERASMUS+, TEMPUS, HORIZONT 2020, etc. The University of Niš and Technical University of Sofia through the ERASMUS+ International Credit Mobility (ICM) programme achieve two years of successful collaboration so far. Two students from University of Niš will participate in Erasmus exchange programme.
I am Aleksandra Djoric and I am a PhD student at Faculty of Electronic Engineering, University of Niš in Serbia at Telecommunication department.
Area of my interest is microwave electronic.
During the last four years, I have been participating in two projects founded by the Ministry
of Education, Science and Technological Development of Republic of Serbia as a research
team member. My research activities have been designing, modelling and analysis of
microwave amplifiers, circuits and systems. The results of my investigations hitherto have
been published in various scientific national and international conferences and journals and
count around 20 papers.
My previous research can be divided in two main phases:
1. Design of broadband single- stage and two-way Doherty power amplifiers (PA) for applications in wireless communication systems and
2. Development and application of linearization techniques on the designed
microwave PA for suppression of inter-modulation products. Agilent Advanced Design System-
ADS software package was used for all designing purposes.
During my time at TU Sofia I plan to continue my Ph.D thesis study related to the
development of the base-band digital linearization methods by using FPGA and VHDL
description for digital signals formation and their application in linearization of RF power
amplifiers.
My name is Nikola Popovic, l’m a master student of Electronic faculty, University of Nis, for department of telecommunications.
At the moment l’m studying at Technical University in Sofia through program for student mobility.My exams here are “Specialized antenna systems in telecommunication”, “Systems for remote control and measurements”, “Secure architectures and protocols for network communications”, “Web-based computer-aided design” and “Internet of things”. Also, like my student research work, l have project within the subject “Web-based computer-aided design”.
Student mobility program is great opportunity to make new friendships with guys from other countries, like Tunisia, India, Turkey, Germany, Italy, Columbia, etc..
Our supervisor at Faculty is Professor PhD Galya Marinova from Department Technology and Management of Communication Systems.
Professor Galia Marinova graduated as engineer with Master degree in electronics in 1988 in the Faculty of Radioelectronics (later splitted in Faculty of electronics, Faculty of Telecommunications and Faculty of Computer science) in Technical University-Sofia. She received a Ph.D. degree in 1994 in the Faculty of electronics in TUS with title of the Ph.d. thesis “Statistical approach, methods and tools for computer-aided design in electronics”. From 1995 she works in the Faculty of Telecommunications as senior assistant professor and since 2011 she’s associate professor in the same faculty. She’s responsible for research and innovation activities in the department “Technology and management of communication systems”. G.Marinova did one year post-doctoral research in CNAM-Paris, France in 1999/2000.
She has 3 Ph. D. students – one received the Ph.d. title in 2014 and the 2 others are currently developing their Ph.d. theses.
G.Marinova is author and co-author of more than 80 scientific papers, mainly in the area of computer-aided design in electronics and telecommunications. She got the Certificate of merit at the World Congress on Engineering in London, UK in 2007 and recently a Best paper award at the Twelfth Advanced International Conference on Telecommunications, AICT 2016, May 22 - 26, 2016 - Valencia, Spain. G.Marinova is member of the scientific committee of Conference ICEST. She’s coordinator of CEEPUS network project and has experience with several Erasmus+ projects. She’s also involved in some other national and international educational and research projects.
