To EBEC
Take the Challenge!
EBEC, which will take place at FEUP from the 16th to the 18th of March, is the biggest European Technology Competition and it gives you the chance to develop your group spirit and your professional and personal skills while working in team to solve in 24h the proposed problem. Your creativity and time management skills will also be put to test, in addition to getting in contact with companies.
Due to its big academic interest, this competition is credited by the University of Porto with 1,5 ECTS.
Team Design
Building a prototype according to a script with a limited number of materials. These materials can be purchased in a store, with credits provided by the organization, thus allowing better management of materials.
Case Study
Resolution of two real cases usually proposed by companies providing solutions to a technological and/or management problem. In this modality, your abilities to think analytically and to develop hypothetical solutions are tested.
