Ruptura UFMG: evento de inovação e empreendedorismo da escola de engenharia da UFMG

Abstract

This paper presents Ruptura UFMG, an event of innovation and entrepreneurship organized by the ENG200 Program of the School of Engineering of the UFMG in partnership with IEBT and TRIE Engineering. Inspired by the EPICENTRO/Campos do Jordão event and developed along the guidelines of the SCET/UC-Berkeley Entrepreneurship Bootcamp, Ruptura UFMG has student leadership as its milestone. Supported by companies from the Belo Horizonte innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem, Ruptura UFMG has a disruptive nature, so that the event reinvents itself with each edition, whether held in person or online, promoting a synergy between the industry and the university and providing a favorable environment for exchange of experiences. Fully aligned with the new National Curricular Guidelines for Engineering, Ruptura UFMG is a complementary academic activity in an event format that adds the necessary skills for the formation of the Engineer in this contemporary and globalized world.
