Ocean Young isn’t just about job recruitment. – Students are also searching for potential BSc/MSc thesis topics, project assignments, and internships, and possibly secure a summer job for next year, explains Thea.

Jan Tore Tveranger, CTO at Entech, highlights the value of collaborating with students: “It’s always rewarding. They bring fresh insights and examine our technology from different perspectives, merging theoretical knowledge with industry experience.” His company benefited from working with three HVL students on their bachelor thesis, which provided valuable insights into drilling operations.
