Instructors
University lecturers
 Delivering the basic theoretical foundations that let you understand and calculate the process.
Industry experts
 Engineering and Oil and Gas companies.

2.  Showing real applications found in everyday life.
 Providing the participants with judgement to tackle real problems.
Manufacturers
 Enlighten the participants as to the features of equipments currently available in the industry.
 Manufacturers will bring to students real life state of the art technology and typical assessments
where theory and practice meet together.
 Manufacturers will show available capabilities to meet demanding process requirements.
Problem based learning
 The participants are highly motivated by the need to solve a real-life problem.
 The concepts are learnt by applying them (rather than memorizing).
 The discussion in teams greatly enriches the participants skills because they learn from each other.
