Book Description
This book aims to advance the knowledge on the future of business education in South Africa and to allow all relevant role players (universities and industry) the opportunity to debate and share ideas on how to best position business education to optimally serve the interest of students and the dynamic changes taking place in the world of work. Although some of these changes have taken shape before 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the need and pace for change. If business schools (in our context, faculties of economic and management sciences) do not adapt rapidly, they will be left behind by other up-and-coming industry providers. The research scope covers all business-related undergraduate and postgraduate economics, management and accounting programmes, excluding MBA programmes.

Book Description
Selection of the optimal recovery method is significantly influenced by economic issues in today's oil and gas markets. Consequently, the development of cost-effective technologies, which bring maximum oil recovery, is the main interest in today's petroleum research communities. Theory and Practice in Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery provides the fundamentals, latest research and creditable field applications. Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) is potentially a low-priced and eco-friendly technique in which different microorganisms and their metabolic products are implemented to recover the remaining oil in the reservoir. Despite drastic advantages of MEOR technology, it is still not fully supported in the industry due to lack of knowledge on microbial activities and their complexity of the process. While some selected strategies have demonstrated the feasibility to be used on a mass scale through both lab and field trials, more research remains to implement MEOR into more oil industry practices. This reference delivers comprehensive descriptions on the fundamentals including basic theories on geomicrobiology, experiments and modeling, as well as current tested field applications. Theory and Practice in Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery gives engineers and researchers the tool needed to stay up to date on this evolving and more sustainable technology. - Covers fundamental screening criteria and theories selective plugging and mobility control mechanisms - Describes the basic effects on environmental parameters and the mechanics of simulation, including microbial growth kinetics - Applies up to date practical applications proven in both the lab and the field

Book Description
With the knowledge economy playing such a critical role in global economic development, increasing the number of Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD) graduates in higher education institutions worldwide has been imperative. The knowledge economy emphasises the importance of critical thinkers and researchers, as 'doctoral education cultivates thinkers and researchers’ and equips them to participate in development. African-identifying females account for 30% of doctoral graduates in sub-Saharan African countries, even when PhD education is viewed as an entry into academia and a gateway to careers in research and other disciplines. There is a paucity of research regarding PhD graduates who are specifically women in Africa; as a result, there is little information about their attributes to success in PhD studies, what opportunities and freedoms they have, and what challenges they face during their PhD journey, along with their motivation to overcome these challenges so that they can achieve their goals. It is essential for women in Africa to complete their PhD education to contribute to the development of their countries as some scholars believe no nation can grow without women’s participation. Thus, modern civilisation is the result of males and females cooperating in modern society. Even though some women complete their PhD studies, there is scant research on what strategies enabled their success. Instead, the reasons for their attrition are known. This book aims to contribute to PhD education scholarship, specifically for women in Africa. It allows women in Africa to narrate their PhD experiences through resilience theory and the capabilities approach lenses..

Book Description
This book is the proceeding of the International Conference on Sustainable Engineering Development and Technological Innovation (ICSEDTI 2022) that was successfully held on 11-13 October 2022 using an hybrid platform. The conference is themed “Sustainable empowerment of innovative solutions through the development of integrated scientific researches to enhance the advanced technological world”, which represents our belief of how the sustainability is essential in our approach to solve problems through technological innovation. A total of 56 papers were submitted and presented within the sessions of the conference. The papers’ topics revolve around Informatics Technology, Electrical Technology, Marine Technology, Manufacturing System and Technology, Mechanical Engineering, And also Information Industry and Management. In addition to the technical paper presentations, there were also five keynote speeches featured, and eight plenary talks were delivered. Two of the keynote speeches were delivered in person by Professor Selo from Universitas Gajah Mada, Indonesia, and Professor Goib Wiranto from the National Research and Innovation Agency, Indonesia. The rest of the keynote speeches were delivered online by Professor Yvon Kermarrec from IMT Atlantique, France; Professor Ian Gibson from University of Twente, Netherlands; and Dr. Ilham Akbar Habibie from The Association of Indonesian Engineer, Indonesia. It was a great pleasure to work with the technical program committee led by Mr. Hilfi Pardi, who have completed the imperative process of peer-review on the technical papers submitted in this conference. We are also very fortunate to have on our side the excellent organizing committee team of the Faculty of Engineering of UMRAH who work very hard to organize and support the conference. Finally, our appreciation to all the authors who have participated in this conference with their amazing achievements and enthusiasm. We firmly believe that ICSEDTI is a suitable platform for researchers, engineers, and developers who are concerned with sustainability in engineering and technological development. We hope in the coming years ICSEDTI will be better in terms of the organization of the conference, the quantity and the quality of the researches submitted, and most importantly the impact on the sustainability of technological innovation.

Book Description
These proceedings present a selection of papers presented at the 3rd International Conference on Materials Mechanics and Management 2017 (IMMM 2017), which was jointly organized by the Departments of Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Architecture of College of Engineering Trivandrum. Developments in the fields of materials, mechanics and management have paved the way for overall improvements in all aspects of human life. The quest for meeting the requirements of the rapidly increasing population has led to revolutionary construction and production technologies aiming at optimum management and use of natural resources. The objective of this conference was to bring together experts from academic institutions, industries, research organizations and professionals for sharing of knowledge, expertise and experience in the emerging trends related to Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Architecture. IMMM 2017 provided opportunities for young researchers to actively engage in research discussions, new research interests, research ethics and professional development.
