Proceeded on the past November 25, 2021 the 1ª edition of the examination for obtaining the Certificate SolidWorks Associate-Simulation (CSWA-S). This certification in computational simulation was carried out under the guidance of Professor João Milho, with the support of Professor Ricardo Portal and Sqboredom that enabled free achievement of the certification exam to the students attending the curriculum unit of Computer Assisted Engineering (CAE) in the Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Maintenance and Production branch. The students approved in the certification exam were: Bernardo Sousa, Brijesh Nathoo, Daniel Frederick, David Bronze, Francisco Correia, Frederico Neves, Henrique Santos, Iris Esteves and João Almeida.

ISEL has initiated the Mentoring Training programme within the framework of   Entrepreneurial and which   aims to empower ISEL (future   mentors) lecturers, previously selected by each Department, to act as promoters of the   Ecosystem   Entrepreneurship of the ISEL. The mentors beyond the promotion and support of Entrepreneurship in the respect   Department will make the interlinkage of the respected output   of   ideas / solutions / services / products   developed by students, faculty, and staff with the ISEL incubator. Promoted in conjunction with the CISE company is a training programme organised by the TRUE consortium within the framework of the HEI Initiative @EIT Health.   The mentors mentioned in the framework below are available to be contacted for development and transformation   of the ideas in successful business: Department Docent Name Email Civil Engineering Maria Idalia da Silva Gomes idaliagomes@dec.isel.pt Electronic Engineering and Telecommunications and computers Alessandro Fantoni alessandro.fantoni@isel.pt Luís Filipe de Matos Duarte Barons lbarreiros@deetc.isel.pt Electronic Engineering of Power and Automation Joao Herminio Ninitas Lagarto joao.lagarto@isel.pt Filipe André de Sousa Figueira Barata filipe.barata@isel.pt Mechanical Engineering Vitor manuel Rodrigues anes vitor.anes@isel.pt Ivan Rodolfo Pereira Garcia de Galvain ivan.galvao@isel.pt Chemical Engineering Helena Paulo helena.paulo@isel.pt Physics Pedro Almeida pedro.almeida@isel.pt Mathematics Cristina Isabel Caetano Ferreira Januario cristina.januario@isel.pt For more information about the TRUE Project and the HEI initiative Initiative:  https://eit-hei.eu/   

For the second consecutive year ISEL has seen its work in the area of environmental sustainability, under   the Eco-Schools Programme, recognized by the  Blue Flag Association of Europe  (ABAE), considering the actions implemented at the level of environmental management and the activities developed in its Campus involving pupils, faculty and staff.

Considering the current epidemiological context, ISEL makes available to all its collaborators a multifunctional personal protection and contagion prevention hook by COVID-19, vocated primarily for the opening of doors. The multifunctional hook was developed within the framework of the project  PortaSegura  (arrangement ISEL and bank Santander), by the teachers João Milho, Ricardo Portal and Amélia Loja and a team of Collaborators of the DEM and   the   Center for Research in Modeling and Optimization of Multifunctional Systems (CIMOSM). This device is, on par with the protective masks, available for surveying by the ISEL collaborators. Information about the available equipment  here. STL file for 3D printing  here.
