Learn how Siemens is helping students design a more sustainable future

Engineering students and professionals alike are craving education on sustainable design practices. These learners are keenly aware that in order to create a more sustainable, economically successful and stable future, radical changes in product and packaging design are needed. 

To address this challenge, Siemens Digital Industries Software is proud to offer several exciting courses on Coursera aimed at equipping learners with the skills needed for sustainable design.  

Learn about sustainability and the circular economy in this course from Siemens and CU Boulder 

This course is the first in a nine-course series on incorporating sustainability in technical management. The first three courses are already live. Learners can earn a digital badge for completion of each course, and a microcredential for completing the entire series.

By attending this course, learners gain the strategies and tools needed to integrate sustainability into their daily life and the companies where they work.

It also introduces students to the idea of the circular economy, which is an innovative way of decoupling economic growth from traditional resource extraction.
