Designing, Planning, manufacturing and installing are the most dominant words that, can we hear when discussing engineering. Conventional engineering is the way of ease our life, but as we know with these technologies we have already destroyed, waste resources and money over and over without considering the future generations. Deforestation for human needs, global warming due to industrial emission already peaked due to higher growth of the population. This is the new era, people destroy by owner because of technology, when technology develops to ease our life peoples are tending to explore more and more to ease each of every task without thinking and managing about environment and resources.

Are we really success as Engineers? Yes, when considering technical point of view engineers have contributed lots and lots of innovations to the world. But when considering the part of this biosphere humans have done non reversible damage to the environment by destroying and misusing resources and money.

But with all collapse happen with the technology, and due to bad experience that affect to the environment. Engineers are now mostly concern about the environment and as well as the economy. Here now we have things more than engineering, which is considering environment, Society and the economy when applying engineering technology to the real world application. Therefore, as a graduate who are going to contribute to technological world should consider sustainability with environmental systems, society and economic system as same as the technology.

That is the main reason why MSc SELECT is tending to provide all-rounder exposure to the knowledge of Management, Entrepreneurship, Innovations, Economics to the student’s parallel with the technical knowledge. All the SELECT students are participating in the one week crash course in business studies (40-hour crash course) in February in ESADE, Barcelona in Spain. Which is the one of the highest ranked business university in the world. Also ESADE is the one of opportunity for all SELECT students who studies in the KTH, UPC and OUSL with each other. Rather than learning whole sessions are conducted as an interactive session and students have to have a complete project regarding business model development for innovative business.

ESADE crash course 2017

As remote based student, Personally I have gained considerable knowledge that can initiate business studies, management, innovation and marketing further related to my technical background. Each of every first year students of the SELECT annual participating for the crash course and InnoEnergy master school facilitating all the arrangements.

This is highly valuable opportunity for the engineering students in order to think beyond engineering with optimizing not only technology, but also environment, economy and all the factors which is related to our life and future generation to enhance humanity beyond the conventional engineering.
