“It’s rare to find a contest where all you need to do is be yourself. It’s not only a chance to showcase what you’ve already achieved, but also to highlight your field of study in relation to others. This format helps recognize engaged students and the diversity and value of the solutions developed within various academic disciplines. The contest is also a great source of inspiration and motivation. It captures the spirit of studying – the passion for gaining knowledge and sharing the results of your work. It’s an opportunity to contribute to a broader conversation about science, technology, or the arts – and to present your personal contribution,”
says Eliasz Marchut, Absolwent Extra 2024.
