摘要:The Telecommunications Engineering Sciences are presented as an embracing field of studies with central importance on both scientific and technological development, and cuts across many areas of knowledge, such as maths and physics. Recognizing this value, the Instituto de Telecomunicações together with the Universidade de Aveiro developed already several projects among hundreds of high school students, following the main goal of spread scientific knowledge on Telecommunications Engineering. The first one, entitled Tele-Loucuras, followed the philosophy “hands on the mass”, and the full results obtained through an inquiry are evaluated, proving the importance of these kinds of initiatives to the students’ additional technical training. Following this project, a second one raised entitled Atreve-te!, which followed a more theoretical philosophy, but addressed more than a thousand students. A qualitative assessment to the project performance is presented based on the feed-back received. Also following the first project, a third one also raised entitled Radio, Antennas and Space Propagation, which is a summer course covering the physical layer of the Telecommunications Engineering, since the radio channel to the radio equipment and radio systems and a qualitative assessment to this initiative is also performed based on the experience and feed-back received from the students.
