UCY signs deal with communications ministry

THE University of Cyprus signed an agreement with the communications ministry yesterday, to share information.

The agreement was signed by the Communications and Works Minister Tasos Mitsopoulos and UCY rector Constantinos Christofides at the university.

The first objective of the agreement is to establish a channel of communication, and the second to directly connect the university with the economy.

“We have already achieved a series of symposia regarding issues such as, intelligent transport systems, the construction of streetcar systems in Nicosia and a collaboration in archeological matters,” Mitsopoulos said.

Christofides said the collaboration of the university with the public sector was the key to emerging from the crisis.

 

 

 

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
