Research

Monica’s research methodology strongly builds on practice, with three main areas of action:

  • exploration of enterprises’ life cycle thinking attitude by investigating product development, design and engineering processes through empirical research, mainly case studies;
  • action research to estimate the effects of applying lean thinking to product and process development, design and engineering (in any industrial sector and including startups) in the digital era with a special focus on sustainable development;
  • development and application of serious games to both students and practitioners to assess the effect of innovative teaching methods on the ability to learn engineering concepts.

Research projects
