AMAZON WOMEN IN INNOVATION: 1 borsa di studio per studentesse iscritte a Ingegneria. Entro 9/03 presentazione delle domande

Posted on by simeone

È stato firmato alla fine di dicembre 2019 il bando di selezione per una borsa di studio di €6000 per le giovanissime studentesse fresche di immatricolazione nell’a.a. 2019/2020 nei corsi di studio in Ingegneria Informatica e Ingegneria di Internet del nostro ateneo. Una opportunità – messa a disposizione da Amazon che ha finanziato la borsa di studio – per chi è in condizioni meno agiate, che può essere rinnovata per i due anni successivi, andando a coprire parte delle spese affrontate per raggiungere la laurea triennale. Ma i tempi sono stretti e a ridosso delle prime sessioni di esame: la domanda di partecipazione va presentata entro il 9 marzo 2020.

“Stiamo cercando di fare la differenza per molte giovani donne che un giorno diventeranno leader nell’innovazione”,  ha spiegato all’ANSA  Mariangela Marseglia, VP Country Manager di Amazon.it e Amazon.es

 

Ecco un estratto dai primi articoli del bando che è consultabile e scaricabile assieme agli allegati necessari dal sito web di ateneo

Al fine di aiutare le giovani donne provenienti da contesti meno avvantaggiati a soddisfare la propria ambizione di lavorare nell’innovazione e nella tecnologia, è indetta presso l’Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata” la selezione per l’assegnazione di n.1 Borsa di studio dell’importo di € 6.000,00 al lordo delle ritenute fiscali di legge e al netto degli oneri a carico dell’Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata” (IRAP), destinata alle studentesse immatricolate per la prima volta all’a.a.2019/2020 al Corso di Laurea in Ingegneria Informatica oppure al Corso di Laurea in Ingegneria di Internet presso l’Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata”.

La vincitrice beneficerà, inoltre, di un percorso di mentorship per aiutare a sviluppare competenze utili per il lavoro futuro, come, ad esempio, le tecniche per creare un curriculum efficace o affrontare un colloquio di lavoro in Amazon o in altre aziende.

La Borsa di studio è rinnovabile per lo stesso importo per i due anni accademici successivi nel caso siano soddisfatti i requisiti previsti dall’art. 9 del presente bando.

Possono concorrere all’assegnazione della Borsa di studio le studentesse che alla data di scadenza del bando risultino in possesso dei seguenti requisiti:

  • Siano immatricolate per la prima volta all’a.a. 2019/2020 al Corso di Laurea in Ingegneria Informatica oppure al Corso di Laurea in Ingegneria di Internet presso l’Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata”;

  • Abbiano conseguito e regolarmente verbalizzato almeno 18 CFU, utili al conseguimento del titolo;

  • Abbiano riportato una media pesata degli esami utili al conseguimento del titolo non inferiore a 26/30.

 

Amazon ha già potuto testare la preparazione degli studenti di Ingegneria ed Economia a “Tor Vergata”, che hanno vinto l’edizione 2018 dell’Amazon Innovation Award volando fino al quartier generale dell’azienda mondiale di spedizioni a Seattle per presentare il loro progetto ai top manager americani.

 

Il Team “TorVergata” – Ingegneria+Economia – vince l’Amazon Innovation Award 2018

Posted on by simeone
Hanno vinto! La squadra formata da Michele Baldassarre, Claudia Costanzo, Miriam Di Mario e Giulia Di Prospero non soltanto ha vinto il contest locale romano dell’università di Roma “Tor Vergata”, ma è stata scelta come vincitrice dell’Amazon Innovation Award nazionale 2018, giocandosela alla pari con il Politecnico di Milano e il Politecnico di Torino. Sono stati infatti i tre atenei italiani gli unici coinvolti da Amazon per il suo Innovation Award, giunto quest’anno alla terza edizione, per totale di circa 400 studenti riuniti in squadre e pronti a presentare circa 80 progetti innovativi.
Quest’anno la sfida lanciata da Amazon agli studenti era relativa allo sviluppo di idee innovative nell’area dell’Operations Management e in particolare riguardo la gestione del magazzino e la logistica interna.
Il 12, 13 e 14 febbraio, rispettivamente al Politecnico di Torino, Politecnico di Milano e all’Università di Roma “Tor Vergata” si sono tenute le premiazione dei vincitori locali. E il 14 febbraio nel nostro Ateneo è anche stato annunciato il vincitore finale, a livello italiano, che è risultato appunto essere il primo classificato a Tor Vergata.
Il team vincitore è composto da Claudia Costanzo, Miriam di Mario, Giulia Di Prospero (tre studentesse di Ingegneria Gestionale) e Michele Baldassarre (studente di Economia). Il progetto da loro presentato è denominato “XIVA” e propone un perfezionamento della nota tecnologia “kiva” già in uso nei centri distributivi Amazon. L’innovazione consiste nell’estensione delle funzioni di questi robot magazzinieri per comprendere operazioni di carico e scarico, migliorandone l’interazione con le persone anche dal punto di vista della sicurezza. Gli studenti hanno presentato la loro idea sintetizzata nel formato “six-pager” richiesto da Amazon, completa però di una progettazione di massima, dimensionamento logistico, analisi cost-benefici, analisi di rischio e di impatto sui processi.
Il prof. Max Schiraldi ha svolto il ruolo di “tutor” supervisionando l’elaborazione di tutti i progetti degli studenti: “la sfida ricadeva esattamente all’interno del mio tema di lavoro, io insegno Operations Management  e sono stato il loro interfaccia con Amazon”.
La notizia della vittoria ripresa dalla stampa

14/02 – Amazon Innovation Award 2018, la premiazione!

Posted on by simeone


Giovedì 14 febbraio nell’aula Convegni degli edifici di Ingegneria si conclude ufficialmente l’edizione 2018 dell’Amazon Innovation Award, il contest promosso dalla multinazionale di Seattle e che vede in competizione team di studenti di tre atenei italiani: il Politecnico di Torino, il Politecnico di Milano e – ovviamente – l’Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata”.

È la seconda edizione del contest e quest’anno la sfida lanciata agli studenti riguarda lo sviluppo di idee innovative finalizzate all’efficientamento delle operations all’interno dei fulfillment centers di Amazon, come quello di Passo Corese, aperto appunto a inizio 2018 nel Centro Italia.

“L’Amazon Award si è confermata una iniziativa estremamente interessante per gli studenti, a cui hanno partecipato con entusiasmo” commenta il prof. Massimiliano Schiraldi, referente a Tor Vergata per Amazon e tutor per gli studenti del contest. “I ragazzi hanno ideato interessanti soluzioni nell’ambito del warehousing e del material handling: alcune di queste erano assolutamente innovative e originali. Sono molto soddisfatto di quello che ho potuto vedere”.

Il contest ha visto gli studenti impegnati per due mesi, da inizio ottobre 2018 a inizio dicembre. “Il tempo non è stato molto, devo ammettere – continua Schiraldi – questo ha anche un po’ disincentivato la partecipazione. Alcuni studenti che si erano inizialmente registrati alla gara non sono riusciti a consegnare in tempo. Alla fine si tratta di progetti complessi e la necessità di sintetizzare il tutto in massimo sei pagine richiede comunque uno sforzo addizionale. Ci sono studenti che hanno riprogettato un modello di centro distributivo ex-novo”.

Alla cerimonia di premiazione del 14 febbraio interverranno anche i reclutatori di Amazon, per illustrare le posizioni aperte in azienda, per dare indicazioni sul processo di selezione e suggerimenti per i colloqui. “Speriamo si decidano anche ad annunciare la nuova edizione dell’Award! – conclude il professore – Gira voce che per il round 2019 è possibile che il contest venga allargato anche a studenti dell’ultimo anno delle lauree triennali e dottorandi di ricerca. Sarebbe molto più interessante e coinvolgente”.
