The monograph examines the critical role of university-industry partnerships in driving innovation, technological progress, and economic growth. Through a comparative analysis of the European Union and Transition Economies, it highlights the potential for such collaborations to modernize education, improve graduate employment, and optimize knowledge utilization. The study provides a comprehensive framework for successful implementation, supported by case studies from Armenia and Italy, and offers strategic insights and recommendations for policymakers.
