Abstract
This article presents aspects of the cooperation between university and the company, on the example of Polish technical universities, which educate students, in the field of geodesy and cartography (among many others. Nowadays scientific development is one of the most important elements affecting the economy of the country. This involves continuous contact between the two parties, the business community and the scientific societies. Thanks to such cooperation, highly valued commercialized products, which goes to the customer, are formed. With many programs, enabling the financing of the consortia between these parties, the significant increase of undertaken cooperation between industry and universities is noticed. The article describes examples relating not only to joint scientific and development research, the issues of student internships in companies outside were also discussed, for both the practice in the home country and in other European countries. Graduate knowledge should not be based solely on the experience gained in the theoretical classes (lectures) and practical (exercises, laboratories, projects) elements, the student should also inquire the knowledge and skills outside their own university and find out what problems he may encounter at professional work. Contact between the academic staff and representatives of the industry should be carried out continuously. Despite the research conducted at the university, guided educational policy should be adapted to the requirements of employers to students (Engineers and Master of technical sciences).
Keywords: Student internships, scientific internships, research, geodesy, photogrammetry, remote sensing.
