Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

The focus of the project is to create enterprise and product architects that can implement digital business and extended products. Specifications for a curriculum in manufacturing strategy at Masters level will be developed. GEM-EUROPE will cover digital business along the supply chain, development of extended products and end of life planning and operation. It will have a modular structure allowing both training courses in industry and a full Master degree from a university.

The curriculum will be designed to comply with industry's needs. To obtain this, surveys will be conducted in selected industries and best practices will be studied. Training and education will have to be delivered in a way compatible with peoples work situation, e.g. it will have to be off-campus rather than on-campus based. This calls for new pedagogic approaches and new ways of delivery of training and education. The delivery will use ICT tools over the internet. The training will be based on application of multimedia. The curriculum will be validated by a demonstrator and workshops with industrial participation. It will be published on web and documented in a booklet.
