    Innovative approach to circular economy in higher education: a learning factory use case

    No full text
    The integration of circular economy principles into university education equips students with essential skills to address future sustainability challenges, particularly by fostering competencies required to navigate the increasingly complex decision-making processes that arise from the dismantling of the traditional “take-make-waste” paradigm. Through the application of the known “retention options” within learning factories, circular solutions are developed and explored across di-verse industrial scenarios. This approach not only enhances interdisciplinary collaboration and entrepreneurial skill development but also prepares students to meet the evolving demands of the labor market and comply with strict environmental regulations. This paper presents and evaluates the incorporation of circular economy aspects into a specialized learning unit for industrial engineering students, using a case study methodology. This unit encompasses the transformation of conventional linear product-systems into circular ones through the systematic application of circular strategies. During a structured practical phase, students en-gage in hands-on activities to develop feasible solutions for transitioning to circular product-systems. These solutions are then critically analyzed and discussed in a collaborative setting. The learning factory replicates a realistic industrial production environment, facilitating continuous engagement with a wheelchair as sample product. This enables iterative analyzing, testing, and modification, ultimately fostering the generation of multiple circular solutions. The developed unit within the learning factory empowers students to independently devise creative strategies for addressing challenges related to resource efficiency and waste management. It serves as an exemplary model for demonstrating the effective implementation of circular economy principles within industrial systems, thereby motivating students in engaging in this topic
