Members of the Engineering Education and Research Community
Dear Colleagues,
Greetings!
We are pleased to
invite you to participate in the 2004 International Conference on Engineering
Education October 17-21, 2004 on the beautiful University of Florida campus in
Gainesville, Florida USA. Hosted by the University of Florida and the
International Network for Engineering Education and Research (iNEER), the
conference will focus on “Global Excellence in Engineering Education.”
During ICEE-2004,
you will learn first-hand the latest innovations in engineering education and
research from throughout the world and discover new opportunities for
international cooperation. The University
of Florida is a leader in engineering education reform in the U.S. and one of
the country’s largest and best research universities.
We welcome your
abstracts, which should be submitted online through the conference Web site at:
http://succeednow.org/icee/. The deadline
is April 1, 2004.
Scheduled during
the best season to visit Florida, ICEE-2004 will include active workshops,
paper presentations, and poster sessions as well as opportunities to interact
with your peers while enjoying Florida's historic, cultural, and tourist
attractions.
Some of the conference events include a technical tour of the Kennedy Space Center and access to tours
of Disney World in Orlando. Also located near Gainesville are the Daytona
International Speedway, home of the Daytona 500, and the world famous beaches
of Jacksonville, Daytona, and St. Augustine, America’s oldest city and
well-known for its historic district. You can watch the sun rising over the
horizon of the Atlantic Ocean, and enjoy the peacefulness of sunset over the
salt marsh along the Intracoastal Waterway.
The previous ICEE
conference was held July 2003 in Spain. For more information and a photo
