The objective of this challenge is to make the university community aware of the sports and healthy habits available to them, and design and develop a technological solution for this area. The challenge will end with a mobility week in which students from other universities abroad will be able to discover university life at the UAB campus and its sports facilities at the Servei d'Activitat Física (SAF). Registration is open until 15 April at the ECIU University website.

The ECIU University, alongside the UAB's Physical Activity Service (SAF) and UniTrento Sport, is offering the challenge TechFit Challenge: Empowering Healthy and Sporty lifestyles through Technology which will run from 9 May to 5 July.

During these almost three months, participants will be working with other European students in interactive sessions focused on debating the different approaches to this challenge, from the initial analysis to its final design. In addition, students will use their final project to demonstrate their ability to manage technology as a means to improve a healthy and sporty lifestyle. The challenge will end with a mobility week, from 1 to 5 July, in which international students will get to know the UAB campus and its university life and the SAF sports facilities.

The challenge can be validated for 3 ECTS credits.
