Start of the ReWo project

"ReWo"(full project name: "From research to working life: students as knowledge brokers for enterpernurial development") is an Erasmus+ project and is part of Key Action 2 - Partnerships for Cooperation. The implementation started on December 1st 2022 and will last 24 months.

The ReWo project is aimed at studying the practices of transferring the findings, which students at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels come to through writing their final theses, into the real sector. The basic goal is to connect students with representatives of the tourism industry, to motivate them to give real challenges from practice to the students to solve in the context of writing final papers, and to later transfer them into practice. We will also create the position of "Idea Manager" as a position in companies whose role will be to promote the acquisition of new business ideas and take care of their evaluation and meaningful promotion in the direction of implementation.

The project besides Faculty of Tourism as lead partner, involves the cooperation of partners from Norway, Finland, and Portugal, each of whom brought their own knowledge and experience through a series of online project meetings and two intensive weeks, which will also include students (representatives of generation Z), to whom the final results of the project will also be intended.
