AB  - The recent years have seen many governments realizing that sustained employment or
economic development requires industry to embrace new principles such as user-centric value
chains, responsive, agile, distributed (“smart”) production, global optimization of value creation,
personalization, or new ways to reach consumers. From “Industrie 4.0” to “Manufacturing 2025”,
“Manufacturing Renaissance”, “Make in India” or “Industry of the Future”, national manufacturing
initiatives in various countries have mushroomed in support of the required transitions of sociotechnical
practices, business models and economical and regulatory structures.

The new economy resulting from those initiatives will be designed and operated by engineers.
Many of them are yet to graduate and the challenge on engineering educators is considerable.
Personalized production techniques, distributed engineering and manufacturing, smart
production facilities, globally dispersed stakeholders are some characteristics of the new industry
that determine new competences in engineers. As a consequence of those initiatives, many
new practices will gain momentum: additive manufacturing, crowd based innovation, big-data
dashboarding, digital factory methods, the Internet of Things and its disruptive business models…

Because they will have large impacts on engineering skills, Dassault Systèmes works with
industry to define them and with academia to bring them into the curriculum.
