Student Entrepreneurship

Universidad Católica del Uruguay is known for its growing number of student who consider themselves entrepreneurs. Some students waited until graduation or completing their Masters and some started while on their careers.

A group of entrepreneurs that came out of UCU are Dardo de León, Alejandro Hernández and Soledad Marzoa -students of fifth year of Industrial Engineering- whom, as part of their final career work, wanted to implement the project "Composting and recycling as alternatives for the recovery of solid waste generated by the company Unilever Uruguay". They got the help of T.RES.OR (plant of the Intendencia de Montevideo), Unilever y SIAC (manufacturer of industrial equipment) and financed by The National Agency of Innovation and Investigation (ANII)

Ruben Deleon, with Gabriel Vicente and Diego Medina, for their final career work, developed a prototype of intelligent atomizer so as to not waste the chemical applied in fruit trees. The development was carried out jointly with INIA (National Institute of Agricultural Institute), a support that was gained with the help of  the Innovation and Engineering Center of the Universidad Católica del Uruguay. Currently Ruben and Gabriel, together with the Faculty of Agronomy of Universidad de la República and INIA, presented a proposal to continue the project through the INNOVAGRO fund.

Universidad Católica del Uruguay, apart from commercial innovation, is making impact on the social-wellbeing of the society as the project "Hidden sources of vulnerability and inequality: daily accessibility by public transport in localities of the inland of Uruguay", which will be presented by Dr. Diego Hernández, professor of the Department of Social and Political Sciences, together with economist Martín Hansz. It’s  financing was obtained by the National Agency of Research and Innovation (ANII), and will be operational starting from November. This means that the study will bring ground information to work onwards since it calculates the accessibility indicators by locality that will allow to know the territorial inequality. Moreover the project will identify the zones and the profile of the most vulnerable localities and people.
