YEREVAN, September 24. /ARKA/. The Russian-Armenian (Slavonic)
University (RAU) and the IT-company Synopsys-Armenia have signed a
cooperation agreement.
According to RAU Rector Armen Darbinian, the agreement will open
a new page in the cooperation with Synopsys-Armenia. He believes
RAU-Synopsys-Armenia cooperation will enhance the education level
of students.
"Experienced specialists in information technologies play an essential
role in the development of the sphere in Armenia," Darbinian said.
President of Synopsys Dr. Chi-Foon Chan said the main target of the
company's activities is training programs for young scientists.
According to him, young specialists are innovators, and the cooperation
will help to train highly experienced specialists.
Dr. Chi-Foon Chan pointed out that graduates of the RAU are the
intellectual power of Armenia. "In the near future, the university
will give outstanding scientists who will have their own investment
in the country's development," he said.
The President of Synopsys informed that on the basis of the agreement
with the RAU, an interuniversity chair "Scheme and Systems of
Microelectronics" will be established soon.
According to the agreement, Synopsys-Armenia will develop 50 university
programs on computer-aided design (CAD) for the RAU.
Dr. Chi-Foon Chan said the RAU's young lecturers (under 30) will
pretend to a Synopsys grant named after the famous Armenian scholar
Anania Shirakatsi.
"The main purpose of the initiative is to arouse interest in teaching
among young scholars," he said.
The Synopsys Inc. entered the Armenian market in October 2004 after
signing an agreement on Leda Design's and Monterey Arset's fusion into
the Synopsys-Armenia Company. For the last two years the company's
technical investments in Armenia have totaled $360mln.
