We Help Ideas Find Teams
One of the hardest challenges is to find a team member that will share the project's vision and mission. We created Project Exchange where every student can open a call and recruit team members with the particular competencies. Also, we encourage industrial partners to place their orders to international teams
Universities and Industrial Partners
We are open for collaboration with companies and organizations from around the world. Our students in international teams do research and develop new products for our international industrial partners. We have more than 60 international agreements.
