The UNFC Symposium is one of the largest events organised by the UNFC Naval Architecture Student Association. The symposium is an annual event, organised by students for students, offering a unique opportunity to explore the maritime industry.

The purpose of the symposium is clear: to support Maritime Technology students in their professional development. The maritime industry may be relatively small, but it offers a wide range of career paths, from engineering and design to operations and management.

The symposium introduces students to these different opportunities, helps them build their professional network and can even open doors to internships and future careers.
