Today, 14 May 2010, the National Authority for Management and Regulation in Communications has organised at its premises in Bucharest, Cluj, Iasi and Timisoara the Open Doors Day, on the occasion of the World Telecommunication Day – celebrated worldwide on 17 May. More than 100 students and professors of the faculties of Electronics and Telecommunications from the four university centres participated in the event organised by ANCOM.
The Open Doors Day was carried out simultaneously in all the four regional divisions of the National Authority for Management and Regulation in Communications via a video-conference. The ANCOM representatives presented to the students the authority’s role, mission and activity. ANCOM thus continues, for the second year in a row, the programme “ANCOM supports the student community”, aimed at fostering a career for the specialty students, offering them access to information and relevant case studies, as well as a dynamic perspective on a career in an institution with regulatory, management and control attributions in the communications field.
“ANCOM offers the students in the 3rd and 4th years of the specialty faculties in the university centres from Bucharest, Cluj, Iasi and Timisoara the opportunity of an internship within the Authority’s technical departments”, Catalin Marinescu, the President of ANCOM, stated in the opening session of this event. The students will have again the occasion to learn more on the process of establishing the principles of technical and economic regulation, on the stages preceding the adoption of a regulation, on organising the tracking of unauthorised emissions and harmful interferences, on the verification of equipment in view of assessing the compliance with the compatibility standards, or on the spectral density measurement. During the internship, the students will be under the supervision of a tutor and will also spend one day planning their career together with the Authority’s Human Resources specialists.
During the Open Doors Day, the President and the specialists of ANCOM presented the students the activity of the Authority, as well as the manner of monitoring the radio spectrum usage. In Bucharest, the students of the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Information Technology, accompanied by Deputy Dean Prof. Dr. Eng. Cristian Negrescu, participated also in two practical sessions during which the ANCOM specialists presented the technical equipment used for spectrum monitoring and the mobile monitoring stations.
