During Engineering Week of the UPV’s School of Civil Engineering (SICMA 2019), METALESA will hold an event on Tuesday 19 February at 12:15pm to announce the winners of the 2nd METALESA AWARDS for the best Final Degree Project.
One year more, this initiative is part of the Metalesa Talent Platform, which arose from our company’s commitment to promoting endeavour and talent amongst new generations of engineers as well as to offer them a real experience of the civil works sector.
The event will be attended by Dr Luis Montoro González, Professor of Road Safety at the University of Valencia and President of the Spanish Road Safety Foundation. His speech will deal with the challenges we are face with when integrating emerging technologies into road safety systems.
