Demola Academy 2011
Demola Academy is not a traditional way of earning credits by sitting in lecture rooms. Instead, Demola Academy is a possibility for you to be part of creating new innovations in co-operation with companies, organizations and the public sector. During the Demola Academy you will learn to work effectively in a multidisciplinary and international team. In the same time you will be earning credit points for your own degree program.
