EURECA-PRO

STEM Innovation Contest 2022 - 2023

Welcome

The EURECA-PRO Alliance is aware of the key importance of raising visibility of STEM (‘Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics’) knowledge areas, encouraging the interest of the students, and specially the role of women, in STEM innovation. If you missed the first edition of the ‘EURECA-PRO STEM Innovation Contest’ the second edition returns to engage Undergraduate and Master students from the nine partner Universities of the EURECA-PRO Alliance into the design of creative projects to solve real-world challenges in cooperation with STEM-related industries. The Contest promotes invention and problem-solving abilities through collaborative work among students with the support of multidisciplinary STEM researchers acting as mentors.
