We proudly announce that CINETic was listed for the second time in the National Research Infrastructure Roadmap of 2021, now ranking a most honorable 19th place of 116 centers that received points.
Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitization, through Romanian Committee of Research Infrastructures (CRIC — Comitetul Român pentru Infrastructuri de Cercetare) carried out an extensive process of analysis and selection of research infrastructures making up the National Roadmap for Research Infrastructures, for the period 2021-2027. Proposals from all over the country were evaluated and ranked by independent experts, according to the methodology and evaluation grid established by the Ministry.
We are both honored and deeply motivated to be part of this ranking, in the prestigious company of long-time established centers such as INOE 200 – National Institute for Research and Development in Optoelectronics, “Horia Hulubei” National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering Măgurele, INCAS – National Institute for Aerospace Research “Elie Carafoli“ and others.
Alongside UNATC, projects from two other Universities have been listed in the Top 20: University of Bucharest (second place) and Alexandru Ioan Cuza University Iași (14th place).
