SUMMARY:Texas Engineering TexTalks: Advancing Industry Through Innovation - Unlock Energy at Sea - Design of Offshore Platforms for Oil\, Gas and Wind
DESCRIPTION:For more than 100 years\, people have endeavored to unlock hydrocarbon resources beneath the sea. In the earliest days\, clever engineers used long piers jutting out into the ocean and lakes. Today\, energy is harvested from coastal locations to hundreds of miles from shore in water depths up to 3\,000 meters\, using fixed and floating offshore platforms. The evolution of technology and innovation in the design of fixed and floating offshore platforms has been integral to the success of the offshore energy industry. This talk will focus on the history of offshore structures and an introduction to the wide range of structural types and the skills needed to design\, build and install them. For further learning\, the University of Texas at Austin Cockrell School of Engineering Executive Learning program offers three short courses on offshore platform design\, as well as a new Fundamentals of Offshore Engineering Professional Certificate. To learn more\, see: \nFundamentals of Offshore Structures (FOS): https://executive.engr.utexas.edu/epd/fos.php \nDesign of Fixed Offshore Platforms (DFOP): https://executive.engr.utexas.edu/epd/fixed.php \nDesign of Floating Production Systems (DFPS): https://executive.engr.utexas.edu/epd/floating.php \nFundamentals of Offshore Engineering Professional Certificate Program: https://executive.engr.utexas.edu/epd/offshore_cert.php.

SUMMARY:Reverse-Engineering Leadership
DESCRIPTION:Organizations in various industries need engineers to step into leadership roles to help optimize project initiatives and outcomes\, while also driving innovation. However\, research demonstrates that engineers staunchly resist such roles because it conflicts with who they are and what they believe; “it’s just not who I am” is a common refrain. Oddly enough\, most\, if not all\, leadership skills and traits are already ingrained in an engineer’s existing skill set. Learning how to foster and kindle these skills to help promote better leadership qualities\, whether it be for personal gain\, to better manage team projects\, or strengthen higher-level position responsibilities are imperative to an engineer’s personal and career growth. \nThis series of 8 micro-courses provides participants with a roadmap to “reverse-engineer” their way into becoming an engineering leader by leveraging their analytical and technical skills to drive innovation\, optimize collaboration\, and improve team effectiveness. \nDesigned for the working professional\, earning micro-credentials and building on an existing skill set has never been easier. The Reverse-Engineering Leadership Micro-Course Series provides professionals with flexibility in advancing their skill set through a broad array of stackable credentials. At both a lower price point and shorter time commitment than other programs\, professionals can choose the number of micro-courses that best fit their needs\, and earn a micro-credential for each micro-course they complete. Display these individual micro credentials on LinkedIn\, or complete the whole series to earn a Reverse-Engineering Leadership Certificate. Your Reverse-Engineering Leadership learning journey is customizable to best fit your needs. \nWhat You’ll Learn \n\nUnderstand how to blend engineering skills with leadership qualities to help you evolve from a good leader to exceptional engineering leader.\nFlex your analytical/technical muscles to increase your level of influence and begin driving innovation in your organization.\nRecognize and begin to acquire the tools which will be essential in your upcoming roles and positions.
