Drone pilots and green youth employability
Mihhail Zautin, a bachelor's student in the field of electrical energy and mechatronics, contributed both theoretically and practically to the Erasmus project. The project aimes to introduce environmentally conscious employment opportunities to young people, in specific Zautin addressed the opportunities in the field of drone pilots.
Drones are already starting to be used in most sectors for different purposes, and people are still unaware of this. It is a market that is constantly evolving, but some of the many job opportunities that this profession offers today are environmental jobs. And that's why with the project „Drone pilots as an answer to green youth employability“ we want to promote the digitalization of the environmental sector through the use of drones, and as a professional opportunity for young people.
The target group of the project is all those young people (18–25) who are interested in protecting the environment or at least minimizing its effects on it as much as possible, from green and sustainable jobs, which contribute to the modernization of the sector and the circular economy. The number of job vacancies for drone pilots has increased exponentially worldwide, especially in their environmental applications. Without a doubt, drone pilots are one of the most fashionable and promising professions today. Job offers for drone pilots are already very common in the different job portals.

Welcome to the Challenge
We invite you to take part of the Bosch Future Mobility Challenge. Bosch Future Mobility Challenge is an international technical competition initiated by Bosch Engineering Center Cluj in 2017. The competition invites student teams every year to develop autonomous driving and connectivity algorithms on 1/10 scale vehicles, provided by the company, to navigate in a designated environment simulating a miniature smart city. The students work on their projects in collaboration with Bosch experts and academic professors for several months to develop the best-performing algorithms. For the finals, the best teams are selected, and the top ones will be awarded with great prizes.
