Computer Science Students Won the First Prize in the Innovation Competition

The team “Pannonian Crew” from the Faculty of Sciences, University of Novi Sad, consisting of Aleksandar Rončević, Mihailo Milenković, Petar Kapriš and Vladimir Krsmanović, all Computer Science students, won the first place in the national competition for the best technological innovation in the category of student innovations. They developed the innovation “Lara” – a system for automatic accident detection and rescue of sailors, which consists of hardware and software systems.

Last week, in the ceremonial hall of the Rectorate of the University of Belgrade, the competition finals were held in the category of Innovative Ideas, a subcategory of high school and student teams.

From the moment of the initial application, there were two qualification rounds in which business models as well as technical feasibility of innovations were analyzed. These talented young people, third-year students of Computer Science, even as high school students had contacts with associations such as Maker, through which they studied outside the classroom and expanded their horizons and ambitions. Although they study programming, they have very broad interests, from music and philosophy to electronics and economics. Vladimir Krsmanović had already been in contact with the shipbuilding industry and there he encountered the problem of overboard falls into the water from ships (Man-Overboard), which motivated him to work on this innovation.

Although the team “Pannonian Crew” gathered only for this competition, they individually have had competition experiences and brought success from other competitions such as national competitions in mathematics and programming, Google HashCode, Competition for the Best Technological Innovation in the high school category, etc.

This victory gave them additional confidence that there was real potential in their idea and that it was recognized, which paved the way for a much broader dimension of the innovation creation process. The plan of these young researchers is to continue developing the idea and to test it on real ships soon.

Three New Curricula Developed in the Fields of Reproductive Biology/ Assisted Reproductive Technologies and Regenerative Medicine

Erasmus+ Project “Curricula Development in the Fields of Reproductive Biology/ Assisted Reproductive Technologies and Regenerative Medicine in Serbia”, Ref. No. 586181‐EPP‐1‐2017‐1‐RS‐EPPKA2‐CBHE‐JP ART-REM led by the University of Novi Sad, with the Faculty of Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine as the participants, was successfully completed in June 2021 and received the highest grades on behalf of EACEA.

MAS in Reproductive Biology were enhanced and new study programmes were created at the University of Belgrade, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine – Academic Specialization in Animal Reproductive Biotechnology and the University of Kragujevac, the Faculty of Medicine – MAS in Regenerative Medicine. LLL courses were also created for the veterinarians and reproductive biologists – embryologists.

All three universities procured modern equipment, and a signed agreement between the three universities enabled teaching staff exchange within the above-mentioned study programmes.
