Engineering Management in the Digital Economy
Details of the presentations at the event, run at the Institution of Civil Engineers, and co-sponsored by AIM Research, are now available.
Prof Jennifer Whyte's Advanced Institute of Management (AIM) fellowship (2009-2011) focuses on management practices in project-based design work; and how such practices are changing in the digital economy.
Design Innovation Research Centre
Prof Whyte is building research capacity in areas related to the AIM Fellowship through a related exploration group.
