Ahoy companies and other organisations in Joensuu and Kuopio! Do you have a social, technological or scientific challenge in mind that our international and multidisciplinary group of students could help you with?
Submit your challenge to YUFE Challenge teams! A team of international and multidisciplinary students from the 10 academic institutions of the YUFE Alliance can help you find a justified solution with the support of their academic mentors.
Previous YUFE Challenge teams have tackled issues such as mass tourism, polarization of social media, and social support for students. Cooperation with an enthusiastic international team opens up new perspectives and makes your organization known to potential future employees.
The challenge proposals will be collected and evaluated by 15 January 2024. The chosen challenges will run from February 2024 and students will propose a solution for the challenge within three months.
The call for applications is now open. If you got interested, contact us first. Then you can apply by submitting your challenge in English on the Virtual Campus here. The deadline to submit your application is 8 January 2024.
