Using resources in such a way that they never become waste is the goal of circular economy. The certificate introduces you to the basic strategies for developing circular products and services and implementing them successfully in new business models. Together with experts from science and business, you will develop a sustainable business strategy that consistently takes circularity into account.

You will learn how to design successful business models for circular economy and how IT-based life cycle assessments can be set up and used for the measurement and analysis of circular processes and materials. An introduction to eco-design and design thinking methods as well as the cradle-to-cradle approach will support you in developing circular products and services.
