This year's edition of Career Day was marked by high student and visitor attendance, as well as the participation of more than 50 companies and institutions from the maritime economy sector, government institutions, and other relevant organizations. Participants had the opportunity to visit exhibitor stands, talk with potential employers, find out about internship possibilities, take part in job interviews for first employment, and submit their CVs. They were also able to learn about the projects being carried out by the Faculty, which bring concrete benefits to students, employees, and the institution itself through the development of knowledge and competencies, the enhancement of teaching and research capacities, and the procurement of modern equipment that enables higher-quality practical and scientific work.
As part of the event, the Centre for International Projects presented 12 current projects funded through various European programmes, with the aim of showcasing the wide range of international and national collaborations in which the Faculty actively participates.
