Encouraging Innovative Educational Approaches through a Student Design Contest

This paper introduces a comprehensive educational initiative tailored for third-year students enrolled in the Telecommunication Engineering program at Escuela Politécnica Superior de Gandia, Uni-versitat Politècnica de València, Spain. The initiative proposes a student competition as part of the International IEEE APS-URSI Conference, aiming to immerse students in practical learning experiences related to Antennas and Radiopropagation. This endeavor seeks to enhance student interest, foster innovation, and encourage active participation within the telecommunications field.
