About ENGood

Engineering for Good: Including a Social Perspective in Engineering Programs (ENGood) is a KA220-HED Cooperation Partnership in Higher Education project, co-funded by the European Union under the Erasmus+ program. 

The project aims to develop a training program for a multidimensional enhancement of technology courses, integrating the analysis and evaluation of engineering technologies from various perspectives: political, economic, and environmental. The ultimate goal of the project is to equip future engineers with the skills necessary for a comprehensive examination of how new technologies, including their commercialisation, can impact personal, social, economic, or political levels.
