CROSSMINDS

Research project

CROSSMINDS is an Interreg Flanders-Netherlands project with the aim of achieving a better match between the demand and supply of knowledge and the corresponding knowledge transfer to companies.

CROSSMINDS consists of 5 masterclasses around the overarching theme of 'Smart Industry'. Students and professionals follow one or more master classes together, form cross-border virtual teams and then work out a real life case together. The teaching format of this course is hybrid: in addition to online classes and self-study, a physical session is organized per master class.

In each master class, one theme is covered. The five themes covered are:

  • Smart building 
  • Cleantech
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Management
  • Chain Collaboration
  • Smart Sensing: Advanced Electronics and Sensor Technology

Around the master classes, attention is paid to the competences required to actually convert technological developments into innovative applications, on the basis of the EU framework EntreComp.
