The Power Systems Day of Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP) took place on the university’s campus, last 22nd of July. Organized by the university’s Department of Electrical Engineering, this event takes place at the end of each academic year, on the same date that the finalist students of the Electrical Engineering course present their master’s thesis.
Marks the transition moment of the finalist students from the academic reality to the professional world, the Power Systems Days is a meeting that brings together students and alumni with a significant journey in the labour market, with the aim of sharing experiences and inspiring the professionals and leaders of tomorrow.
In this year’s edition of Power Systems Day, André Parente, Executive Director of Sotécnica and VINCI Energies Portugal and former ISEP graduated student in Electrical Engineering, was one of the guest speakers, accompanied by Paulino Ferreira, Business Unit Manager of Longo Plano. In a session dedicated to the sharing of professional experiences through the voice of former students, André Parente shared his professional career, both in the Portuguese market and in an international environment, with the next generation of electrical engineering professionals.
