Workshop for Young Members

In the first part of the workshop, young engineers Mihael Ravnjak, Katja Arh, Matej Matos and David Purić will present their diverse work in tunnelling (supervision, geotechnical engineer, contractor, surveyor).

The second part of the workshop will be dedicated to the group activity of subway route planning in a rapidly growing city as part of the TMI-2030 project. The aim of the activity is to facilitate exchange of knowledge between participants, innovative thinking as much as possible and overcoming challenges that will be presented to you as a group. Your task will be to be better, more daring, advanced and persuasive than the other groups of consultants on the project, to convince the client with your solution and, in addition to everlasting glory, secure a winner's reward.
