ERASMUS - LIFELONG LEARNING PROGRAMME - Intensive Programme
Conceptual Design and Development of Innovative Products (CD-DIP)
26 June - 15 July 2011

Again this year, we offer students the opportunity to participate in the summer school CD-DIP - this time from 26th of June till the 15th of July 2011 in Denmark. Its focus will be on conceptual design and the development of innovative products, and that is why it is often called "Innovation Camp".

Why this focus?
In an increasingly globalised world it is paramount for the competitiveness of the European industry that the employees are capable of coming up with new innovative ways to define concepts for new designs and for the subsequent production process for new products faster than today. In addition there is a tendency that the complexity of products is increasing continuously. In order to master the complexity and at the same time produce these faster it is essential that employees with different disciplinary and cultural backgrounds are able to collaborate efficiently in short windows of opportunities.

Objectives
The objectives of this project is to facilitate better interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary collaboration for BSc and MSc students with different technical backgrounds. PhD students who also have skills to combine their theoretical skills with practical usage will also be able to attend

Requirements
All students must have either a mechanical, electrical and software engineering background and have around 1 year left of their studies.

This IP project is organized and coordinated by the Engineering College of Aarhus and co-organized by several participating institutions in Europe.
