PolyTECH EDU — educational program for students, September 7 — October 9

About the program

PolyTECH EDU was created as a space where university education meets the practical experience of the technology industry. Over five weeks, participants will work with experts, engage in practical modules and workshops, and complete interactive business tasks. Training will take place across four tracks:

Tech & Engineering
Creative Thinking & Marketing
Career & Self Development
Artificial Intelligence

The program format is online, allowing students from any region of Ukraine to participate.

Education that brings you closer to the technology industry

One of the key ideas of PolyTECH EDU is to help students better understand the opportunities of the technology industry while still studying at university. That is why the program combines an educational component with practice and interaction with business representatives.

Participants will not only gain new knowledge but also work on practical tasks, get acquainted with approaches used in modern tech, and better understand what competencies are needed for further professional development. This aligns with the broader goal of PolyTECH Project — to show young people that to build a technological career, there is no need to leave Ukraine, and to strengthen Ukrainian education with the experience and expertise of international companies.

Ukraine needs a new generation of engineers and specialists in tech fields, but for this, young people must see the prospect of professional development. PolyTECH EDU gives students the opportunity to go beyond the academic program, gain practical experience, work with industry experts, and better understand their own professional direction. Our task is to show that a technological future can not only be imagined but also created in Ukraine.
