From November 10 to 17, 23 students and professors from prestigious North American universities and engineering schools traveled to Italy to participate in the Italian technologyAwards - ITA - 2019. Italian Technology Awards is a program spearheaded by ICE Agenza, together with Federmacchine and various Italian associations, which for more than ten years has aimed to promote and raise awareness of Italian industrial technology, engineering and design among future executives of Canadian, Mexican and U.S. manufacturing companies.
University students are invited to submit papers and research papers on various topics related to specific industries and technologies. A jury of industry experts, professors and engineers from Italy and abroad, select the winning dissertations.
The winners and their professors are awarded a trip to Italy, with free flights, meals, accommodations and transportation. During their stay in Italy, students and professors are offered a tailored program of classroom sessions and seminars, curated by an Italian partner university, as well as visits to factories and industrial sites.
