Biotope of today’s engineer
(scientist)
• Information explosion: *3/10y, 6000p/day…
• Unprecedented rate of Change: half-life product < 5y
• Converging disciplines: broad-depth conflict
• Globalised markets, virtual companies
• Towards flat, agile company structures
• Sustainable manufacturing crucial (cradle-to-cradle, recycling)
• More societal responsibility imposed by law
• Trend towards ‘open innovation’ eco-systems (sharing cost)

‘Renaissance Engineer’ ?
Renaissance = system oriented merging of disciplines
in the fast changing biotope of the 21st century…
• Engineer oriented towards social innovation =
• Innovation driven by the grand societal needs of
the 21st century and in an economic- ecologic
win-win scenario
• Operating in agile, dynamic and virtual company
structures

This…
But also that?
Independent problem solving
Deep specialisation (peephole)
Too solitary?
Not enough eye for context?
Innovation skills?
Research skills
Peer-to-peer communication
Social skills?
Market aware, economic skills?
IQ ok!
EQ?
Open up your mind!
56
H.De Man/KULeuven/IMEC
What can you do about it?
• Be open for teamwork (leadership – membership)
• Coaching of team-based project education
• Contact companies at international conferences
• Test yourself for creativity and entrepreneurship
• Take the ‘Initiatie tot ondernemen’ course
• Go for industrial internalships
• Get language and cultural skills: explore the world!
• Confront your research with public opinion…

Dismantled mythes…
www.ugent.be/nl/onderzoek/doctoreren/visie/rapportdoctoreren/survey2006.pdf
Doctoreren in Vlaanderen (3695 ondervraagden)
1. Ph.D. presents no added value at recruitment
-
73% yes to added value, 10% neutral, 17% no
-
After that counts WHO you are (EQ!)
2. Ph.D. has no impact on salary
-
Not so. On average 248€ more, after 10-15y 496€
-
But that’s not what you do it for, I suppose?
3. Professional experience at university is crucial
-
Only 33% thinks yes…rest thinks other skills count
