Science is a university based Science centre with about 40 000 visitors were the goal is to stimulate high school students’ interest for the natural sciences, math and technology. During these years Lena developed her pedagogical skills and competence in the pedagogic field and besides leading the activities she organised pedagogical training for teachers, pupils and university students. Since 2011 Lena is head of the new Department of Learning at the School of Education and Communi- cation in Engineering Sciences (ECE), KTH. Lena is responsible for building up a new strong research environment in engineering and technology education, K-12 to university level.Dr. Per G. Norstr¨om, KTH Royal Institute of Technology Per

widening gap in systems engineering expertise in the workforce. There is aparallel need to develop “entrepreneurally-minded” engineers (i.e., those who can identifyopportunities to create or improve products, and to implement plans to capture such opportunities).Engineering graduates need the capability and competency to efficiently and effectively engineerinnovative systems that satisfy customer and user operational needs, within budget, schedule,technology, and risk constraints. The solutions developed must incorporate societal impacts as wellas regulatory constraints. As evidenced by our definitions, there are strong overlap between Page

Both the “EngineeringProject Management” and “Software Project Management” courses are introductory graduatecourse designed for students coming from different engineering disciplines, such as Electricaland Computer Engineering, and Software Engineering. In addition, many times the courses arepopulated with students coming from Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineeringgraduate programs. There are certain aspects of the courses that traditionally make the combinedsection more of an abstract, dry, course rather than an engineering hands-on course. First, thecombined course covers the entire systems
