Description
'Energising circularity: teaching the future' explores innovative approaches to teaching energy transformation through circular economy principles. This 1.5-hour event features insights from four distinguished speakers: Prof. Krzysztof Pikon (Silesian University of Technology), Dr. Marta Alves (University of Lisbon), Dr. Andreas Saniter (University of Bremen), and Dr. Selçuk Toprak (Gebze Technical University).
The event aims to address the urgent need for sustainable energy education in higher education institutions by presenting cutting-edge teaching methodologies for integrating circular economy concepts into energy education. Our speakers will showcase practical approaches for preparing students to address energy transition challenges, facilitate knowledge exchange between academic institutions and industry stakeholders, and promote cross-disciplinary collaboration in sustainable energy education.
The program includes presentations on innovative teaching approaches for circular economy in energy education, an interactive panel discussion on bridging theory and practice, a showcase of educational tools developed through the CESynergy project, and networking opportunities for participants.
This event is part of the CESynergy project, which aims to develop comprehensive educational resources for teaching circular economy principles in energy transition. The project is funded by the European Union's Erasmus+ Programme (KA220-HED - Cooperation partnerships in higher education), supporting the EU's sustainability goals through enhanced education.
Through this funding, the project will create an e-learning training course with three specialised modules, develop an online platform with open educational resources, and produce a compendium of knowledge on circular economy pathways for energy transition.
The CESynergy project brings together six partner organisations from across Europe: Silesian University of Technology (Poland), University of Lisbon (Portugal), University of Bremen (Germany), Gebze Technical University (Turkey), Training 2000 (Italy), and the Institute for Innovation and Responsible Development (Poland). This diverse consortium combines expertise in engineering, education, circular economy principles, and sustainable development to create innovative teaching resources that will prepare the next generation of professionals to address the challenges of energy transition through circular economy approaches.
