Abstract:

In recent years, companies cooperating with universities appeal to the practical experience of graduates of technical universities. Graduates who have practical experience gain a great advantage in the labor market. However, the problem is insufficient involvement of students in practical activities and weak support from universities.

The University of Žilina in Žilina decided to implement the practical activities of students into the final theses. Some students and young researchers have the opportunity to create devices for measuring and testing various systems during the creation of final theses.

The University of Žilina has a science park in which individual faculties have their own research laboratories. The equipment of the laboratories is at a very high level and corresponds to the technical focus of the faculty. The problem occurs during the creation of measuring devices. The University of Žilina for Student Support has created a grant system that serves to support research activities.

Master's and doctoral students studying security management at the Faculty of Security Engineering deal with security systems in their diploma theses - their evaluation, design and testing. To test security systems, it is necessary to create devices and devices for which students use grant support.

The main purpose of the paper is to describe the possibilities of obtaining and using a grant to create a device for testing RFID access readers, using the background of the science park and its benefits to the research activities of the student.
