The project focused on concerted actions to introduce students, especially females to the new professions of Engineering and Science (STEM).  NEAPOLIS collaborated with teachers of computer science of the Apostle Pavlos Gymnasium in Pafos and all actions on behalf of NUP were coordinated by Dr Natia Anastasi.

Amongst other  actions, students were asked to compose an independent proposal for a technical solution to an everyday problem, as part of a competition with a trip to this conference as first prize.  The winning team of Constantina Neophytou, Savvina Lemesianou, George Nicolaides and Giannis Nicolaou proposed the development of «Humidity sensors for automated watering of golf courses».  Dr Klitos Christodoulou (Department of Informatics) Dr Nikos Bakas, (Civil Engineering) and Dr Luis Alcazar-Roman (Chemist collaborator) selected this proposal amongst a total of nine compositions.
