To support you, several companies will share real projects and innovative insights, offering inspiration and a direct view of the world of work.

The task proposed during the Career Competition will be developed by Prof. Marco Derudi, Associate Professor at the Department of Chemistry, Materials and Chemical Engineering “Giulio Natta” of Politecnico di Milano, to provide participants with a challenge aligned with the skills and real-world issues of the sector.
