International Conference

ICEE-2003
Valencia, Spain, July 22-26, 2003
11. CALL FOR PAPERS
Workshop: Manpower Development
and Business Infrastructure Construction For High-Tech Industry
With the advent of new information
technology, a new generation of advanced engineers has to be educated
and deployed to high-tech industries in order to harvest from those new
technologies. In addition, governments have to play more active roles
in providing competitive business environment in order to build up a competitive
high-tech industry. To produce more talents with the appropriate training
in this field, new education and training programs have to be implemented.
To build up the high-tech industry, new policy and programs have to be
implemented in the government side too. The primary objective of this
workshop is to discuss the possible ways and share the past experiences
on these issues. We solicit papers and presentations that address some
or all of the above themes. A follow-up open discussion regarding future
activities is being planned.
Following is a summary of
the key questions that motivate this workshop:
· What are the expectations
for our students from the common perspectives of university, high-tech
industry, and government? How are these expectations translated into policy,
curriculum, and business practices? What are some of the case studies
and examples?
· How do we prepare future engineers with specific talents/capabilities
that meet the challenge of the fast-paced high-tech industry? What has
been the past experience? What will be the implications to curriculum
reform? How do we proceed to implement effective curriculum reform? What
are examples and case studies?
· What are the roles of the university, industry and government
in workforce re-training for the industrial workforce for high-tech? What
are examples and case studies?
· How can government, industry and universities form a partnership
for manpower development and/or high-tech industry development? What are
examples and case studies?
