 As our fourth project, we felt that there should be more options for students to become more active in the industry because the relationship between them and the sector is not strong enough. Therefore, we have made the decision to develop a design-phase program model, implement the program with suitable partners, and provide ITU students the chance to add value and solve the problem with their own project. So, how will this program model act?
-# Initially, we have made the decision to expand the challenge-based program called "Let's Innomind," which was created by our faculty champion [[Faculty Champion:Zeynep Erden Bayazit|Zeynep Erden Bayazıt]], and held last year.  By guiding the second cohort this year, we will create a journey of the students who have participated, gather all the outputs of the program, and recreate the exact model for potential partnerships.

 '''Project Details'''
-Every ITU student needs to deal with some major, numerous problems on campus, such as a lack of workspaces, an increase in pollution, or issues related to overcrowding. According to surveys and feedback, some students are willing to find a solution to the issues they are facing on their own, rather than waiting for someone from the institution to hear them out and act. However, are there any resources available for those who want to be a part of the change, and what is the exact process for putting those solutions into practice?
