Every year, the Urban School's students are invited by public or private partners to collaborate on real-life challenges, in order to address operational and strategic questions. They do this through a group project exercise. The students will present their projects during workshops, with the presence of tutors and partners, and will receive feedback from a major witness as well as engage in debates.
