The Universitat Jaume I, with the support of the Regional Ministry of Education, Universities and Employment, has held the 2nd Conference for the Promotion of the Industrial Doctorate to promote and consolidate this type of Doctorate, which trains researchers in companies or public administrations, through the completion of their doctoral thesis in experimental development or industrial research projects.

The opening ceremony was attended by the Rector of the UJI, Eva Alcón, the Director General of Science and Research, Rafael Sebastián, and the Vice-Rector for Research of the UJI, Jesús Lancis.

The rector highlighted the UJI's commitment to this type of doctorate and thanked the support of the Generalitat Valenciana for this programme that "strengthens the transfer of knowledge between the University and the business sector and public administrations and that, in addition, is a differential factor", for the advantages it provides both for doctoral students and for companies.

In this sense, Eva Alcón pointed out that the industrial doctorate "allows a person to be trained to the highest level of research, but with the added value of carrying out research work in a company, and at the same time increases the company's capacity to attract talent and improve its competitiveness through innovation".

Along these lines, the director general of Science and Research, Rafael Sebastián, also highlighted how this type of doctorate offers students the opportunity to link theory with practice and to have real specialised experience, as well as gaining knowledge that is highly valued in the world of work through collaboration with industry and the practice of cutting-edge research. "It is very important to promote this modality, because these doctoral students are very well prepared to face professional challenges and can also make a substantial contribution to innovation in their fields of knowledge," he said.

The conference, which has served as a meeting point between research staff, non-academic entities and doctoral students, has shown the evolution of the industrial doctorate of the UJI, which began two years ago with the first thesis with industrial mention, and currently has a total of 23 doctoral students who are developing their research in a working environment. The guide for entities participating in the programme was also presented.

During the session, some success stories were also presented in order to give visibility to the potential of this type of doctorate. One example that was presented was that of a doctoral thesis aimed at improving results in therapies based on the administration of medicines, which has given rise to various patents.

At the end of the day, several meetings were held to promote new lines of collaboration between the University and companies for future industrial doctorate projects.
