The main objectives of the course is to provide students with more knowledge and insight about:
- Complex societal, legal, ethical, political issues;
- Context and understanding motives for engineering projects and justice;
- Development of engineering throughout history;
- Interaction between innovation and society;
- Multi actor settings in engineering and innovation

Develop and improve the following skills
- Project based collaboration
- Formulating a research question
- Academic writing and presentation skills
- Buildup of a mind map of all parties involved and their conflicting interests

Cultivate global competence composed of the knowledge, ability, and predisposition
- Apply the insights learned from social sciences and humanities to engineering research and design processes.
- Design is a process that gives a rise both to artifacts and to their accompanying social networks, and design processes are collective processes in which humans and nonhumans interact.
