Engineers4Europe Closing Event

Engineers for Europe (in short E4E) is an Erasmus+ project that aims at finding solutions to issues concerning engineers from all around Europe. Currently many engineers and aspiring engineers have to face problems such as a lack of reliable data, a shortage of engineers for the expected demands in the upcoming decades and a wide gap between institutes of education and possible employers. The E4E project aims at resolving these and which will benefit engineers, universities, enterprises and professional associations alike.
