KTH SoTL 2023 - Presentation 10 - Including industry 4.0 and sustainability in engineering education: results from a survey - Antonio Maffei & Eleonora Boffa
The fourth industrial revolution, so-called Industry 4.0 (I4.0), is emerging by bringing technological advancements that are radically changing the manufacturing industry. One important aspect of this revolution is that technological advancement is not only seen as a means to achieve higher efficiency. The UN 2030 agenda for Sustainable Development sets a goal that promotes sustainable industrialization and fosters innovation, i.e., SDG 9. SDG 9 demands harmonizing technological development and the future of the environment and society. In view of this, technology is now seen as an enabler of a greener future.
