The technical lectures (blue areas above) will provide a deeper insight into the science behind the industrial challenges and a thoughtful discussion about materials lifecycle, replacement and sustainability. They will be tailored to the background of the participants and the challenges proposed by the companies involved.
The innovation and entrepreneurship activities (green areas above) will consist of a few very short frontal lectures and immediate application in team-work. The actual content could evolve dynamically during the school to adapt to the needs of the participants.
Most activities will be done in team, simulating a typical academic or industrial situation. Academic and industrial mentors will follow the students in the team work, guiding them and providing immediate feedback on their progress.
In order to be effective, team work requires diversity. For this reason, candidates with the most diverse background/CV/interests are invited to apply. The most interesring ideas usually come from people that are not into the field of the companies involved in the challenge as they can provide a different view of the problems. Facing unexpected problems is the challenge that most people will face daily in academia and industry: we give the tools to deal with them and provide an effective solution.
