Industrial needs v. Engineering education curricula related to maintenance, production and quality in industry 4.0: A gap analysis case study in Tunisia and Morocco

Abstract: To improve the competitiveness of industry in Tunisia and Morocco, local authorities have adopted strategies to support industrial companies in modernizing their value-adding infrastructures. A sustained effort has been dedicated to encouraging industrial organizations to embrace the Industry 4.0 paradigm and technologies. Despite these continued efforts, engaging with Industry 4.0 is still difficult in countries like Tunisia and Morocco, particularly because industrial organizations struggle to find fresh gra… Show more

“…In the project's early phases, the evaluation of industry requirements and the examination of disparities between those requirements and the academic offerings have been successfully conducted. This led to the formulation of the corresponding methodology, encompassing the following steps [35]: (Step 1) conducting a survey among 32 Tunisian and Moroccan companies about Industry 4.0 requirements and technologies in-use, (Step 2) conducting a deep literature review to identify the related skills for the domain of Industry 4.0, leading to documentation a set of essential skills, (Step 3) analyzing the existing curricula of project partner institutions in three targeted topics namely, maintenance, production, and quality, (Step 4) carrying out a cross-analysis, relying on the previous steps to identify the gap between Industry 4.0 skills and existing curricula in Morocco and Tunisia. The literature review and the survey have culminated in the identification of pertinent technological concepts associated with Industry 4.0 such as Big Data, Autonomous Robots, Industrial Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, Additive Manufacturing, Augmented Reality, and ML and AI.…”

“…Therefore, there is a need to develop a set of skills to design different types of decision-making systems based on the systems' dynamics. The detailed results of the survey are out of the scope of this work, but are presented in [35]. However, the survey enabled us to identify the main Industry 4.0 technological concepts that are now in use by some local industries as well as the scope of their usage.…”
