Work-in-Progress: 9 Years Dedicated to Developing Students' Skills for the Industry of the Future 1: Orleans University, France; 2: INSA Centre Val de Loire This article presents nine years of initiatives dedicated to develop Bachelor-level students’ skills for the Industry of the Future. The work highlights how emerging industrial expectations—driven by automation, artificial intelli-gence, IoT, robotics, cybersecurity, and data processing—require new peda-gogical strategies centered on Project-Based Learning (PBL). Since joining the EduNet network in 2017, the University of Orléans has strengthened in-ternational collaboration and integrated professional-grade tools into its cur-riculum. Several major achievements illustrate the impact of this approach: finalist positions in the 2018 Xplore competition, a national victory in 2019, the creation of the world’s first “PLCnext for Bachelor Level” certification in 2021, and a third-place award in the Xplore 2023 contest for an AI-based food-waste reduction project. In 2026, the certification will be updated to re-flect evolving industrial needs and new partnerships. Emerging technologies such as Augmented Reality further enrich future pedagogical developments. | |
