Sustainable Engineering Design

نبذة عن المقرر
This 2-course program enables industrial design engineers to take their first steps in designing for a circular economy.
In the first course, you will explore the basic concepts of the circular economy and their implementation from various perspectives: how businesses can create value by reusing and recycling products; how designers can come up with amazingly clever solutions; and how to apply systems thinking to the transition to the circular economy.
The second course is more practical. You will learn more about strategies in circular product design (including reuse, repair, remanufacturing and recycling) and how to integrate lifecycle design both into your daily work and your organization’s vision. You will also receive tips and tricks to design accordingly and learn how to make better decision for current and future products designs.
If you are looking for ways to upskill yourself and become a designer who not only creates great designs but contributes to the environment through sustainable engineering design – this is the program for you!

Ken Webster
Ken Webster is Head of Innovation at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation in the UK. He is the author of The Circular Economy A Wealth of Flows (EMF May 2015) and Sense and Sustainability (Terra Preta 2009) His background is in economics and business education and education for sustainability. He is Honorary Teaching Fellow at the University of Bradford's School of Management and a major contributor to their MBA Enterprise, Innovation and the Circular Economy. He joined the Foundation in 2010.
Conny Bakker
Dr. Conny Bakker is professor of Design Methodology for Sustainability and Circular Economy at the TU Delft, faculty of Industrial Design Engineering, where she coordinates and teaches several courses in Sustainable Design and Circular Product Design. Her research field is Design for the Circular Economy, in particular the design and development of products that are used more than once (i.e. that have multiple lifecycles). It explores strategies such as product life-extension, reuse, remanufacturing and recycling, and the business models that enable these strategies. A second research interest is the field of user centred sustainable design, which focuses on exploring the relationships between consumer behaviour, sustainability and design.
David Peck
Associate Professor, David Peck, researches and teaches in the field of circular built environment and critical materials, based in the faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment at TU Delft. He is a founding member of the Circular Built Environment Hub, which connects to BauHow5 and Ellen MacArthur Foundation networks.
David is also an Honorary Associate Professor at University College London – The Bartlett and an adjunct Professor at MIP Politecnico di Milano, Graduate School of Business. David works with ad hoc committees in the EU, Brussels.
Ester van der Voet
Ester van der Voet is employed as an Associate Professor by Leiden University at the Department Industrial Ecology of the Institute of Environmental Sciences, CML. Within the field of Industrial Ecology, she specialises in methodology development: life-cycle assessment, material flow analysis, substance flow analysis, natural resource accounting, and indicator development. These methodologies she applies to in different topical areas, especially within the bio-based economy and in metals and the circular economy. She has initiated two MSc programs in Industrial Ecology: a program between Leiden University and TU Delft, and an international program of Leiden, Delft, Graz University and Chalmers University in Sweden. She has conducted many research projects for the EU and in other international consortia. She is a member of UNEP’s International Resource Panel.
Erwin van der Laan
Dr. Erwin van der Laan is associate professor of Logistics and Operations Management at the Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University. Erwin teaches a dedicated course on closed loop supply chain management in the MSc Supply Chain Management at RSM and in the MSc Industrial Ecology, which is jointly coordinated by Leiden University and Delft University of Technology. His research focuses on value creation though closed loop supply chain management, in particular by designing and optimizing operations management processes. Erwin is scientific director of the closed loop supply chain center at RSM.
Anna-Karin Jönbrink
Anna Karin Jönbrink is the manager of Energy and Environment at Swerea IVF, and is responsible for Circular Economy within the Swerea group. She has a background as a product developer in industry. Her research is within the field of Ecodesign and Circular Economy. One of her main topics is how to increase the use of product and process development to improve sustainability in industry. She has been involved in several national and international projects. For example, she has managed one of the Ecodesign directive preparatory studies on behalf of the European Commission. She is regularly teaching Ecodesign and Circular Economy, both in industry and at Chalmers University, and has actively implemented Ecodesign in more than 75 companies.
Armin Lohrengel
Armin Lohrengel, born in 1966, studied mechanical engineering at the TU Clausthal and RWTH Aachen University. Until 1999 he was scientific assistant at the chair of machine elements of RWTH Aachen University. The promotion took place over the life-oriented dimensioning of clutches. From 1999 he was Head of Machine Development at Paul Hartmann AG, Heidenheim. Since 2007 he has been a university professor (Department of Mechanical Engineering and Design) and director of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University of Clausthal.
Max Prumbohm
Max Prumbohm, born in 1986, is a graduated mechanical engineer of the university of technology Clausthal and works there now as a research assistant at the institute for mechanical engineering. His fields of research focus on the one hand on the development of an automatically machine for disassembling electronic products and on the other hand on tools for the rating of product's recycling capability. As a teacher for the process engineering bachelor students, he is responsible for the topic of pressure vessel construction.
Juan Azcarate-Aguerre
Juan is a graduated architect and architectural engineer. He works as PhD researcher at TU Delft’s Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment, Department of Architectural Engineering and Technology. There, he is involved in a series of projects related to the development of a circular economy for the construction sector. His field of expertise lies in the integration between building technologies, façade engineering, and real estate development and management. His research focuses on new forms of financing and supply-chain organization, to facilitate a more efficient use of energy and material resources in both new and building retrofitting projects.
