Offer a Practical Challenge to the Students of the Institute of Computer Science

We invite companies and organisations to submit proposals for course projects. These projects are an excellent opportunity to collaborate with the university and gain fresh ideas from our talented students.

A course project is a semester-long initiative in which students form teams and test possible solutions to challenges proposed by partner companies and organisations. These projects allow students to put their knowledge into practice and gain valuable experience in teamwork and project work.

Partners are sought for three courses: Software Project, where student teams develop software solutions (such as mobile or web applications); Data Science and Machine Learning Projects, where students analyse datasets and experiment with different machine learning methods; and the Digital Innovation Industry Project, where students address user experience-related challenges. Participation in the latter course is subject to a fee (€3000 + VAT).

According to lecturer Dmytro Fishman, both sides benefit from such cooperation: “Firstly, comapnies receive a proof-of-concept solution for a problem that is important but not urgent enough to reach the development team’s roadmap; secondly, they present themselves as a research-driven, forward-thinking company; and thirdly, they spot future talent whom they can potentially recruit after graduation.”

The deadline for submitting projects is 9 September. Find more info and a guide to submit the projects on our website.
