The orientation activities are aimed at students of high merit, selected from over 600 applications. The courses, which are completely free of charge, have been jointly designed to provide participants with knowledge and tools for a mature and aware orientation. From the latest frontiers of scientific research to the impact of artificial intelligence and robotics on society; from the fight against climate change to the defence of civil rights.
