Collaboration
International Partners
FSG is actively involved in Research and Development projects which strengthen its level of competence in all of the ship-building disciplines. FSG is also engaged in close international collaboration with a great number of European maritime research facilities found in higher learning institutions and research institutes across the larger maritime field.
To support this objective, mutual projects range from collaborative efforts across student apprenticeships, internships, student research projects, theses, dissertations and Master’s theses, for example, all the way to mutual research projects actively pursued within the framework of collaborative efforts.
Many of these activities are promoted within the scope of promotional programs which are supported by the European Commission.
