Education

Project “Innovation in Engineering”

Projecto.Detalhe launched in 2011 the program “Innovation in Engineering”, a summer holidays program that aims to help young people develop skills, solve problems and think like engineers.

This initiative is aimed at young people of secondary and higher education, which are integrated into distinct groups in the company. They are integrated in a (real) project, in order to study solutions, together with engineers from different areas such as electrical, mechanical,chemical and instrumentation.

The program is developed at Projecto.Detalhe, in Sintra, and includes visits to projects sites managed by the company.

Projecto.Detalhe believes that this project can also help identify young talents and encourage their future in engineering.
