The proposed business plans showed a high level of students' knowledge in the field of entrepreneurship and technology.
– Participation in the internship was definitely useful. I learned a lot about entrepreneurship and new technologies. I have never seen most of the products of the enterprises we visited before. The presented robots and automated systems and their capabilities truly impressed me, – shared Manas Sandip Nerkar.
– When I found out that BNTU is a university with a 100-year history, I looked at its photo on the Internet, I decided that I would definitely be here. As you can see, my dream has come true. The approach to teaching and responsive staff made my internship here as comfortable and useful as possible, – said Abhishek Anil Pawar.
In addition to developing professional skills, students learned a lot about Belarusian culture and traditions. Fascinating historical facts, legends and Belarusian landscapes – all this, according to the participants of the school, is incredibly inspiring.
