1366.0. "Colleges and Universities with a Telecom focus." by CTHQ::COADY () Thu Apr 07 1994 14:15

I entered the attached Notes (and replies in Valbonne Notesfile), maybe some
readers of CELT can give me some names and address of colleges & Universities
in England, Scotland and Ireland that have a Telecom focus

Hi,

I have a question that possibly some of the contributors to this Notesfile
can help answer.

I recently attended a meeting of a US telecom forum thats about to go
"international". They are affiliated with industry and telecom universities
in the US and would like to make similar connections in Europe and Asia.

I offered to help identify some universities in Europe, but the task is 
proving more difficult than I expected.  What I need is a list of a few
universities in Europe that specialize in, or have a highly regarding
telecom program.  

I know a lot of universities have Computer Science or Info Technology or
EE programs, but I would rather focus on telecom specific ones first and only 
include them if I fail to get a reasonable number of telecom colleges.  Ones
that come to mind, tho I don't have all the details is THESIUS in Sophia (sp),
Ecole Superior de Telecom, Paris (?) etc.

If you can help, can you post a response to this or mail me directly 
(CTHQ::COADY), with the following details :
University name
full address
contact name ( either an administrator or professor).

Thanks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK, I'll see what I can do.

To be honest I was looking for something very simple.  If there are some 
graduates from a few universities in Europe that believe that it was a good,
sound, Telecom type college, then send me the name, address etc.  I'm looking
for probably 6 or 7 university names, just to so that this organization can at
least start to make contact.
 
I took the action to get a list of university names, not to be the contact
or focal point. I expect the forum will follow up with the introductions
etc afterwards.  All I was going to do, assuming I got some response, was to
extract the replies and Fax them to the chairman.  As I said I know some
of the colleges, I just don't know the detailed address, e-mail or FAX numbers
and/or a contact person. I have heard of others in Nordic countries, but I
    have no idea of the names.
    

However, if I don't get any response I'll have to do something else as I feel
obliged as a European to try and help this group become a truly international
group.

Hmmm, looks like I'm getting a DEC solution here :=)., we are going around
in circles and loads of pointers, but no answers - [ just joking:=)]

I was hoping to keep this very short and simple. I know I could pick up a
guide to Universities in Europe and sort thru it, but I really I don't have
the time.

As already stated, all I ask is if there are a few noters reading this 
Notesfile, that graduated from, or know of a good university that has a 
Bachelors, Masters or MBA in Telecom, can they provide me, via this Notesfile 
or e-mail, the name address of university and a contact name. I will FAX that
to an International Engineering Forum that has a focus on telecom.

If not, its no problem, its not worth a huge effort.

    I included some of my responses to questions in VBE, to avoid similar
    questions and debates on this side.  I need something simple:
    University/college name, address, phone #, contact name, e-mail if
    possible.
    
    I intend to extract the replies, do some minor edits and FAX it to the
    the forum.
    
    Thanks in advance for help.

1366.4Try Heriot-Watt in Edinburgh ( that's Scotland!! )BONNET::NIMMOWed Apr 13 1994 06:4416
    Gerry,
    
    Don't know if it helps but here goes...
    
    A couple of years ago we received a deputation from Edinburgh here in
    Valbonne. They were here on a factfinding mission with a view to
    setting up a similar hi-tech Business Park near Edinburgh. I believe
    there were representatives from Heriot-Watt University and that they
    focussed on Telecoms. 
    
    Try them.
