The Consortium establishes and manages new laboratories
for advanced research, establishes a Local Unit
and one or more Research Units at the member universities.
Conventions can be made also for collaborations
with public agencies and private organisations
for research at a national and international level.
INCA promotes development and projects for new
collaborations among Research Units (RUs) of the
member universities, collaborations of the RUs
with public or private research agencies, both
national and international, active in the fields
of chemistry and environmental sciences, according
to subjects of interest (details here).
The Consortium provides laboratory facilities
and equipment for the member universities, in
order to support doctoral studies and training
for researchers.
INCA promotes and manages advanced education
of workers interested in technical and/or environmental
disciplines. INCA prepared its own National Education
Programme (details here)according to the demand
deriving from specific regulations at a national
and European level. The Consortium promotes formation
of experts in the field of chemistry for the environment,
issuing, in proper cases, grants for young researchers.
INCA promotes and initiates actions for know-how
transfer from basic research to productive and
industrial sectors, considering also local scenarios
of the different Research Units;
The Consortium performs scientific investigations
on behalf of Public Administrations and public
and private Agencies, also provides consultation
and support for questions regarding the chemistry
for the environment.
The Consortium is also involved in collaborations
with industries for development of high-tech equipment
and of innovative chemical processes focusing
on intrinsically safe and environmentally-friendly
ones.
The Consortium may sign agreements and conventions
with national and international public and private
Agencies, Foundations, and Companies operating
in fields of interest for INCA . Can become member
of other Consortia which are active in similar
fields, with same objectives. INCA can participate
to design, realization and management of scientific
initiatives in the framework of international
cooperation and projects.
