Student Challenge
Join the ICSE Student Challenge!
We invite universities to participate in the ICSE Student Challenge, a dynamic mentoring program designed to foster innovation and practical skills among students. This unique format offers students the opportunity to receive hands-on guidance from industry experts and apply their academic knowledge to real-world projects
Participating Universities: We are proud to have had the participation of the following prestigious institutions.
Università La Sapienza, Roma | Fordham University of New York |
WSEI University of Lublin | İzmir Kâtip Çelebi Üniversitesi |
These university’s incorporated the Student Challenge in their academic courses, their students are to present life / or in streaming assignments at ICSE 2024. (See the CHALLENGE page for additional details and submission registration)
Student Challenge – Program overview
Expert-Led Design Sessions: Students will begin with a series of lectures and workshops led by an expert in project design. These sessions are tailored to equip students with the essential skills and methodologies required to develop their own projects.
Project Development: Following the instructional phase, students will collaborate in teams to conceptualize and create their projects. They will apply the insights and techniques learned to develop innovative solutions in their field of study. For example, previous participants from the fields of corporate communication and marketing have created impactful campaigns and strategic marketing plans.
Public Presentation: During the ICSE conference, student teams will present their projects to an audience of peers, educators, and industry professionals. This public presentation will enhance their communication skills and provide valuable exposure and feedback from experts in the field.
Why Participate?
Enhance Practical Skills: Engage in a hands-on learning experience that bridges the gap between theory and practice. | Networking Opportunities: Connect with industry leaders, experts, and fellow students from around the world. |
Professional Development: Gain insights and mentorship from experienced professionals, boosting your career readiness. | Showcase Your Talent: Present your innovative projects to a distinguished audience, gaining recognition and feedback. |
We encourage universities to seize this opportunity to enrich their students’ educational journey and prepare them for future professional success. Join us in shaping the leaders of tomorrow!

Student Challenge Program - Info
Blended Approach of formal and non formal educational scheme at Higher Education Institution Mine Vaganti NGO in the realm of formal and non-formal education (NFE), promotes a pioneering and transformative initiative known as “Student Challenge” aimed at university students.
This innovative educational module harnesses elements from the academic world, such as poster presentations, and melds them with structured guidelines to foster students’ critical thinking and analysis skills. Through a blend of non-formal education techniques and a bespoke mentorship scheme, participants delve into real-world case studies, crafting their own tailored solutions. The culmination of their effort’s manifests in a collaborative poster presentation, wherein teams showcase their insights and proposals.
Not merely an academic exercise, the Student Challenge serves as a dynamic platform for honing soft skills, refining public speaking prowess, boosting the entrepreneurial acumen. Originally piloted in collaboration with La Sapienza University, this initiative has since expanded to include partnerships with esteemed institutions like Fordham University of New York and numerous others. Central to its success is the fusion of experiential learning opportunities with tangible outcomes, wherein students receive recognition and marks for their innovative endeavors, thereby bridging the gap between theory and practice.
Shaping Tomorrow's Leaders
CONCEPT – The Student Challenge is an immersive mentoring program designed to solidify academic knowledge and apply it within its practical domain. Through a structured training regimen, students develop essential skills for their field, combining hands-on workshops and project-based learning with critical thinking and lateral thinking approaches.
IMPLEMENTATION – Students start with defined objectives and are tasked with identifying the most effective solutions to achieve them by applying design principles and methodologies. This process involves building strategies based on theoretical studies, which are then translated into concrete and actionable intervention plans through NFE pathways that blend teamwork, simulations, and final presentations.
OUTCOMES – By the end of the challenge, students will have acquired the ability to develop and shape ideas using the methodological framework of design while strengthening their academic knowledge. The mentoring program will also enhance their analytical, problem-solving, and teamwork skills, providing them with valuable tools to face future professional challenges.
