Abstract

The main objective of the present research study is to identify innovation skills that future engineers should acquire to meet the challenges of XXI century engineering, the increasing demand requirements of the industry 4.0, and sustainable development goals (SDG). The methodology is divided in two stages: 1) to identify innovation traits and 2) to build innovation abilities for engineering students. A literature search is performed on Web of Science and Scopus from the year 2000 to present. A model is proposed for SDGs by using an industry 4.0 context and engineering innovation abilities. It is concluded that the model described here is a concrete representation that allows integrating sustainable development goals and industry 4.0 concepts to incorporate them in higher-level education.
