Future of the City
Already a traditional event for everyone interested in construction, BuildIT will be held for the 7th time this year. The event is aimed at all construction enthusiasts, high school students, construction students, construction engineers and successful construction companies. At BuildIT, everyone can gather new contacts, interact with specialists in their field, apply for practice and work placements and get to know new directions in construction. This year, the central theme is future of the city and all that comes with it.
As before, the BuildIT program is built on an informative conference, an exciting and challenging competition day. The organization of the event has been taken over by the active young people in the Student Council of the Faculty of Engineering of TalTech. Conference will be held in English!
BuildIT entrance is FREE for all participants! As conference seats are limited, pre-registration is required to attend the conference (down below). Likewise, pre-registration for competitions (open under every competition) is required.
BuildIT 2020 will take place during 14th and 15th of October
