Summary:
The ECO-GT project focuses on enhancing the collaboration skills of young engineers, particularly in research and development, policy-making, entrepreneurship, and innovation, and their involvement in the green transition. Additionally, it aims to strengthen these critical skills in engineering education by emphasizing the importance of international communication and collaboration and systematically integrating them into the curriculum, ultimately maximizing the potential of young engineers. As part of this 36-month project, a catalog consisting of 80 micro-learning modules on topics related to green transformation will be developed and transferred to engineering students.
