Campus & Careers Village
At the heart of industrial, environmental, and technological transitions, education plays a vital role in transforming the composites sector. With this in mind, JEC World has developed the Campus & Careers Village - a dedicated space that brings together students, academic institutions such as universities, industry experts, and recruiters. Far more than just an information area, this village shines a spotlight on the skills, academic pathways, and pedagogical approaches that are shaping the professionals of tomorrow.
The Campus & Careers Village enables students and recent graduates to connect directly with companies seeking qualified talent, while also exploring the wide range of careers available in the composites industry - from materials engineering and industrial production to innovation, applied research, and life cycle analysis. For recruiters, the village offers a unique opportunity to engage with a new generation of professionals trained to meet the industry’s current challenges, in a qualified and sector-focused environment.
Universities, engineering schools, and research centers showcase their educational programs in areas such as composite materials, green chemistry, advanced manufacturing processes, and the transition toward sustainable materials. For professionals - engineers, executives, and institutional stakeholders - the village is an opportunity to understand how academia is responding to strategic industry issues: circular economy, automation, decarbonization, emerging applications, and multi-material design.
By highlighting this convergence between higher education, recruitment, and forward-thinking perspectives, the Campus & Careers Village expresses a strong belief at the core of JEC: the future of composites depends on open dialogue between training, research, and industry. Building bridges across generations, fostering knowledge transfer, and strengthening the sector’s appeal are among the key goals embodied by this essential area of the show.
