Students For Future Mobility
SFFM – A Podcar City Program for academics
________________________________________________________________________
The PCC organization is launching a program for academic students. We have named it Students For Future Mobility (SFFM)
Students For Future Mobility is a global program by Podcar City offering a platform for students to tackle real-world public mobility (transportation) issues and showcase their innovative skills, creativity, and knowledge while engaging with peers and experts in the field.
The program provides the opportunity for students to design their own urban mobility future using advanced software and planning techniques. The aim is to create something substantially better in all aspects – energy, materials, economy, capacity, safety, personal mobility, architecture.
The yearly programs (2026 to 2030) are supported by international academic institutions, agencies and other organizations. Awards and prizes are presented in the first half of the year. There are expected to be 10 teams or more each year with about three teams of the first 6 months of 2026.
Each category has three levels – Professional, Undergraduate and Master level prizes. The judges use their experience, expertise and discretionary criteria in deciding on the winners. All cash prizes are after taxes, if applicable. At least one person in your team must register as a member of Podcar City.
