Building the future... 2DAY!!!

General description

Do you stop to admire a building's architecture or a construction site?
Do you know the difference between cement and concrete?
Do you know the difference between soil and dirt?
Do you build and race concrete canoes or tobbogans for fun?
Did you take a class in college to learn how to write letters and numbers?

If you find yourself in at least one of these questions you are the perfect participant of the summer course in Skopje, Macedonia!

The course will cover topics of using modern technologies in Civil Engineering. Civil engineers are instrumental in planning, analyzing, and designing the infrastructure we take for granted in rural and urban areas. This infrastructure includes structures, transportation systems, water supply systems, sewage disposal systems.
Today, civil engineers make use of modern technologies to find solutions to important problems such as mitigation of air and water pollution, management of hazardous waste, and the safety of facilities such as schools, bridges, roads, dams, and pipelines.

You don't need to be a civil engineering to apply - if the subject is at least a bit interesting to you - we're waiting for you in Macedonia!
You will have the opportunity to spend 14 days in a wonderful country in the heart of the Balkan Peninsula and feel the hospitable and positive nation!

Prepare for the summer of your life!!! :)
