Master’s and PhD students in STEM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), as well as early-stage researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry.

The Industrial IoT (IIoT) is expected to be one of the driving forces of global economic growth in the coming decade, relying on advanced Industrial Networks (IN) to seamlessly connect machines, robots, and workers. In this context, the primary objective of the Summer School is to provide students with the opportunity to explore the latest advancements in 5G/6G solutions for this industrial transformation, with a specific focus on radio access networks (RAN). Participants will have the chance to engage with renowned experts from both academia and industry, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities that next-generation communication technologies bring to industrial environments.

The program also covers modern machine learning and optimization techniques, from theory to practical applications, to support expected advanced applications in future industrial environments. The school includes hands-on sessions, and a dedicated committee will evaluate the best workgroup activity.
