International Conference
on Engineering Education
ICEE-2003
Valencia, Spain, July 22-26, 2003
6. CALL FOR PAPERS
Technology and Society:
Engineering Education in the Age of Digital Technology and Globalisation
Papers are solicited broadly
in the following two areas:
(1) Vision for institutions of higher education and their structural reform.
Topics include but are not limited to the development, use and assessment
of new principles for the post-modern, post-industrial education based
on flexibility, networking, intelligence, and universal accessibility.
Examples of such topics include denationalisation and internationalisation
of university education; problem of lingua franca for future universities,
especially their social, political, and economic backgrounds; challenges
to traditional university; and quest for future university education identity.
(2) Engineering curriculum reform and innovation in preparing students
for challenges in viewing technology in its broader context: not only
in achieving its specific technical objectives but interacting with and
affecting the society as a whole. Topics include but are not limited to
course innovation, curriculum reform, interdisciplinary degree programs,
strategic alliances among academia, industry and government, international
collaboration and continuing education programs to address this issue.
Papers on completed work and ongoing activities are welcome.
This conference emphasises development of international partnerships in
education and research. Through special sessions and international workshops,
it provides ample opportunity for discussing future cooperative projects.
