Programme overview

The education of future engineers is an increasingly critical issue for 21st century universities. Enhancing education requires enhancing the preparation of those who teach, advisor, mentor, etc. The success of calls for reform depends on educating a new kind of engineering professor — one who, in addition to conducting cutting-edge research in their specialty, also understands the theory and practice of teaching, keeps current with (and possibly conducts) research in engineering education, and leads colleagues to implement changes at program as well as course levels.
