Altia Premia TFG GrEI ETSE is a joint initiative between the University of Santiago de Compostela and the Galician company, which was created with the aim of rewarding the talent, passion, and effort of students of the Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering (GrEI).

Altia Premia TFG aims to encourage students to analyze the potential applications of their final degree project in the business world. In this third edition, the jury awarded the prize—with a cash prize of 1,500 euros—to Celia Fernández Pérez for her final degree project entitled " Programming an Autonomous IoT Node with Wireless Communication ." The award ceremony took place at the institutional event for ETSE Day 2022.

This recognition, for me, highlights and reinforces all the hours of work dedicated to the project and has motivated me greatly. I want to thank Altia and especially the jury for having so positively evaluated the work I submitted and for giving me this opportunity to demonstrate that so much effort is ultimately worth it, ” said Celia Fernández.

For Josefina Fernández Álvarez , Director of Operations at Altia and member of the Altia Premia jury: “With Altia Premia TFG we want to continue firmly supporting the talent of young people, of students who, with effort and passion, are training to make the leap into the world of work and who want to actively participate in the changes that will mark the society of the future, more equal, more inclusive, more diverse and more sustainable.”

This initiative is part of Altia's commitment to fostering talent in the technology sector and playing an active role in the modernization and digitalization of Galicia's productive ecosystem.
