Tóm tắt

The Picker Engineering Program, which has dedicated itself to redefining engineering education, was discussed. The program focuses on developing pedagogy to foster engineering thought, which requires a unity of knowledge. The novel approach to education is expected to allow development of an exciting, learner-centered curriculum that engages and challenges students; and development of an integrated curriculum that fosters a mastery of engineering fundamentals within the concept of the liberal arts. The approach also encourages socially responsible and sustainability-centered thinking.
