"From STEM to strategy:
Empowering young minds to shape Europe’s aerospace & defence future"
The The European Defence Challenge is an open competition to attract young talent to the Aerospace & Defence industry and to encourage them to initiate a career in defence-related technologies.
The Challenge invites European students to think about a current problem in the domain of Aerospace & Defence and propose a solution.
It was established under the ASSETs+ project (2020-2023) and is continued under the coordination of Fondazione Giacomo Brodolini with the last 5th edition of the challenge being hosted by the Belgian Royal Military Academy in 2024-2025.
HOSTS: Fondazione Giacomo Brodolini and Rzeszow University of Technology.
