EU supports opening of TUMO Convergence Centre for Engineering and Applied Science in Armenia

The EU TUMO Convergence Centre for Engineering and Applied Science, funded by the EU, will soon open its doors in Armenia.

The campus will include infrastructure for educational programming such as TUMO Labs, a STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) research laboratory, a conference centre and a revenue-generating commercial space to ensure the centre’s long-term financial sustainability.

TUMO Labs will constitute a logical continuation of the TUMO programme, allowing university students and young professionals to gain applied and state-of-the-art skills related to STEM subjects once they reach the age of 18.

The centre will be a hub for research, education and start-ups, bringing together local and international partners to bridge the gap between higher education and industry in Armenia. The French University in Armenia is a major partner of the project.
