Would you like to work on real industrial problems in collaboration with the Slovenian company AKRAPOVIČ, as part of a university course?

Apply for the international course European Global Product Realization (EGPR) and lay the foundations for a successful career!

In cooperation with this year’s partner from Slovenia – the AKRAPOVIČ company   international teams of students will, within the framework of the EGPR course, work on solving real industrial problems of a technical nature. The teams, composed of students from five European universities (University of Zagreb, Politecnico di Milano, TU Wien, TU Darmstadt, and the University of Ljubljana), will work from March to June 2026 on the conception and design of technical solutions to the assigned problems.

By participating in EGPR, you will be able to:

  • collaborate with an industrial partner
  • experience working in an international, geographically distributed team
  • spend several days at a hackathon in Slovenia
  • make contacts with students from across Europe
  • gain a new project for your product portfolio.

By participating in EGPR, you create a bridge between theory and reality, gaining valuable experience, knowledge, and skills that will set you apart on the job market. Former students now work in reputable companies such as Bosch, Hilti, and Daimler, while some have decided to remain in academia (FER, FSB).

The EGPR course is enrolled as two elective technical courses (EGPR I and EGPR II), each worth four ECTS credits. Regardless of the semester in which you formally enroll in elective technical courses, EGPR is delivered exclusively during the summer semester as a single, integrated course. The number of students in the course is limited; we accept a maximum of ten students.

Additional information about the course is available on the CADLab website.
