Description

Technologies for Social Innovation (TeSI)

is a project course where, in this first round, student teams and their instructors collaborate with researchers at CERN to discover novel solutions for the future of humankind. The projects are an elaborate mixture where societal, human-driven needs meet R&D&I technologies in detection and imaging from the ATTRACT project.

The project course is done as a collaboration between IED Barcelona, UPC, ESADE Barcelona and IdeaSquare.
