The portal is an online environment that delivers academic resources for bringing real-life SAP knowledge and skills into university classrooms.
It will also enhance related academic and research-oriented projects for professors and students.
"Professors and students from program member and non-member universities alike now have access to effective, clear networking tools designed to expand their skill sets for developing and using enterprise technology," said Léo Apotheker co-CEO SAP.
The SAP University Alliances community includes a career resource centre, faculty club, student union, library, classrooms, and other similar facilities in a virtual community.
Each area presents higher education content supplied by SAP and community participants, including interactive academic resources, such as course lectures, case studies, exercises, demonstrations and videos; thought leadership forums; and community blogs.
The portal is built on the technology of the SAP community network, where the SAP Developer Network (SDN) community, Business Process Expert (BPX) community and SAP BusinessObjects community already offer active online for SAP customers, partners and employees.
SAP will spotlight the benefits and tools of the new portal at its next major faculty event, the SAP Curriculum Congress '09, from 13-14 March in the U.S.
