Self-managed teams

Nowadays industrial processes imply a complexity in technical procedures in which there is an integration of miscellaneous disciplines. This leads to the need of using dynamic working methods and consequently, interdisciplinary team-work is a must. Undoubtedly, universities cannot afford to keep aside from this global framework. The present paper aims to introduce a multidisciplinary project in Industrial Engineering studies integrated in the above-mentioned technical and industrial framework. The core of this project consists of self-managed teams of students from first year of both the Electronic Engineering and the Mechanical Engineering Degrees.
