Once again the Ciência Viva traineeship on Telecommunications at IT was a success!

The program, held last week in Lisbon and Covilhã, “couldn’t have gone better”, in students and professors’ words. According to most of the students, their main will was to know what was behind simple day by day objects and to complement the theoretical part studied at school with the practical part.

Objectives achieved - in their point of view - as they had the opportunity to build their own radio, understanding circuits and technology behind it.

When asked what students will never forget and what they took from the traineeship, the word is said in chorus, with a smile on each face: soldering!

Of course they do not forget friends gained, the availability of the professors and the Lab conditions where they worked. Some of the students say that this experience made them feel like coming to study to IST and UBI.
