    Motivation and Background<\/h4>\n

    Having a career in the area of communications has always been an interesting and challenging one, i.e., technology evolves very fast, every decade a new wireless cellular system emerges, the centre of the area has changed from a very physical basis to one based on software, new technologies have invaded the \u201ctraditional\u201d areas and the economic landscape of the business changes also at a high speed, just to name a few aspects. The number of students in the area has been decreasing in recent years in many countries, due to a growing attractiveness of other areas of technologies (even within ICT in general) and a perception that Telecommunications are not \u201cmodern\u201d any more. As a consequence, there\u2019s a shortage of graduates in this area and organisations are facing difficulties in hiring qualified human resources that can be part of their teams. A contribution for the solution to this problem is to present what\u2019s a career in communications, the general conditions that are available, the benefits offered to collaborators and the problems that are currently being addressed, among other matters. This panel addresses these aspects and provides an opportunity for a follow on exchange of information, between hiring organisations and graduate students or recently graduated ones.<\/p>\n
