19. 12 The increasing infusion of technology in services Technology is increasingly embedded in every component of service management and service value co-creation. In a first wave, technology was used to enhance service backstage operations. Technology is now being used to enhance the interaction between customers and service providers. Bitner, Brown & Meuter (2000); Rayport & Jaworski (2004)

25. MESG – The Master inService Engineering and Management
26. 19 FEUP educational experience Most graduates end up working in service organizations, in areas such as logistics, quality, information systems, project management, requirements engineering or user interface specification.
27. The Master in Service Engineering and Management (MESG*, in Portuguese) aims at developing competences to conceive, design, implement and operate technology enabled service systems. Proposed in 2006, December Started in 2007, September www.fe.up.pt/mesgEnglish (and Portuguese…) * Mestrado em Engenharia de Serviços e Gestão
37. 30 Conclusions The evolution towards a technology enabled service economy creates the need for professional engineers with new competences. Engineers must have a solid understanding of technology but also a solid understanding of the needs of people, organizations and society. Engineers, like medical doctors, lawyers or architects, influence the life of people and therefore need to know a lot more about emotional requirements.
