Reshaping Engineering Education cover

This open access book is dedicated to exploring methods and charting the course for enhancing engineering education in and beyond 2023. It delves into the idea that education, coupled with social connections, is indispensable for a more profound comprehension of the world and the creation of an improved quality of life.

The book serves as a conduit for incorporating complex problem-solving into engineering education across various formats. It offers a structured approach for tackling complex issues, comparing an array of techniques for managing complexity within the realm of engineering education.

Moreover, the book scrutinizes several complex case studies derived from the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals. Additionally, it explores intricate problem-solving and curriculum change case studies specific to engineering education from Harvard University, the University of Technology Sydney, and Aalborg University.

 

“Reshaping Engineering Education: Addressing Complex Human Challenges by Habbal et al. presents a call to action to its readers to challenge the old mindset that we should ‘teach as we have been taught’ … . The intended audience would be engineering faculty or STEM professors who teach undergraduate engineering courses … .” (Brandon Stevens, The Journal of Faculty Development, Vol. 39 (3), September, 2025)
