Project Evaluation from students’ perspective
• IS has the advantage that it freed student summer holidays; • Students’ contact with people from companies created a clearer picture
of how to work in a company; • The suggested topics were related to real problems treated by
employees of the company, so the information the students received came on the shortest path and it was very clear;
• Issues and documentation were clear and seriously presented, according to the standards of a company;
• All these issues have been a challenge for students and forced them to take the activity seriously;
• There have been students who have signed employment contracts for short and medium term with certain companies.
