The Department of Graphic Engineering and Design (DEGD) of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia has undergone continuous and rapid changes in its teaching and research methods in recent years. The DEGD has pursued continuous improvement in learning techniques in its Undergraduate, Master’s and Doctoral programs, striving for excellence, adapting to the increasingly more varied research needs demanded by society from institutions of higher education. We are experiencing paradigm shifts, to a great extent due to the global change affecting the Earth, and we cannot sit back and wait as a society or a department. It is for this reason that a large part of the research carried out recently is related to improved sustainability, investigating new materials, industrial processes, technologies and mechanisms to repurpose and recycle, as is evident in the chapters of the present book. Graphic Engineering and Design is present in the design methodologies used to design a competition motorcycle, in the study of the potential of cellulose as a sustainable material, in the learning about equidistant curves and the solving of tangency problems, in the quest for an alternative to materials derived from fossil resources, in the new production processes for e-commerce packaging, in additive manufacturing, in 3D printing, in the new design methods for porous scaffolds; cross-curricular and innovative knowledge that forms part of the research at DEGD.
L’aparició de la COVID-19 ha accelerat els canvis en recerca i docència que l’actual Departament d’Enginyeria Gràfica i de Disseny (DEGD) de la Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya ha implementat en el darrer bienni. Les millores de les tècniques d’aprenentatge han permès aproximar-se una mica més a l’excel·lència docent en Grau, Màster i Doctorat, complint amb el nostre encàrrec de qualitat i adaptant la instrucció a les necessitats actuals de la societat. Les àrees de recerca del centenar llarg de professors que formen el DEGD són àmplies i variades, àdhuc tenen l’avantatge que estan en permanent col·laboració amb grups d’investigació, tant de la mateixa UPC com d’altres universitats. La incorporació de nous investigadors fruit de les darreres convocatòries internacionals, ha permès incrementar i diversificar la massa crítica d’expertesa del departament. En aquest llibre trobareu una mostra significativa de la recerca avançada, pluridisciplinària, multivariable i heterogènia de la investigació i innovació com a eines de coneixement del DEGD, implicats en un territori dilatat, repartits als diferents campus de la UPC. En síntesi, un bon recull de coneixements transversals, innovadors i amb un ampli recorregut, tant en el món acadèmic com en la seva vessant empresarial.
