The main purpose of the PROFESS 12 (PROFessional skills for Engineering students - Summer School to achieve SDG 12) project is to build on the global research work on skills requirements, to translate them to an Ireland-specific framework and to then design, trial and evaluate an innovative and inclusive Summer School to provide students (women and men) with opportunities to develop these skills. The UNESCO (2017) framework, the Guidelines for the Design of Inclusive Engineering Programmes (Mills, Ayre and Gill, 2010) and the use of the “The Intercultural learning for Pupils and Teachers Toolbox” (http://intercultural-learning.eu/will inspire the design of the School, which will be co-created with students from North and South with a focus on solutions for SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).   

We have four objectives in this project: 

The project consortium has two academic partners (TU Dublin and Ulster University).
