WHAT WENT WRONG? INDUSTRIAL CASE
Are you a student interested in understanding what can go wrong in an industrial project… and how mistakes can turn into valuable learning opportunities?
Join What Went Wrong? – Industrial Case, an interactive event designed to challenge you with real-world industrial cases presented directly by companies.
During the event, you will take part in concrete challenges related to production processes, operations, quality, supply chain, automation, and industrial management.
Each company will present a real issue faced in an industrial project and invite you to analyze the context, identify where things went wrong, and choose the solution you believe is correct from two possible options.
You will be able to vote in real time through a live poll, comparing your reasoning with that of other students. Right after, the company will reveal how the problem was actually solved, explaining the decisions made, the mistakes encountered, and the key lessons learned.
The session will conclude with a Q&A, giving you the opportunity to dive deeper into the cases, ask direct questions to professionals, and better understand the skills required in industrial projects.
A dynamic and engaging format to strengthen problem-solving, critical thinking, and decision-making skills, while getting closer to real workplace challenges.
Sign up and take part!
Please note that the event will be held in English and is part of the Career Service Award.
All events are open exclusively to students and graduates of Politecnico di Milano.
Participating companies will be announced at a later date.
