It is not a surprise that smart IT students work in the sphere even before they got their degree. It can be a distraction from their future career, but it helps most of them. For a company that decided to hire students, their education is one big headache (you can’t fully involve the student into a project, and they just disappear during their exam time). For a university working students are lost souls (they aren’t really studying, you can’t make them teach, you can’t make them do extra work and so on). What are the options for balancing the interests of IT companies, universities and students? This is what my talk is about.
