Global Engineering Education Study | The Curious Cat Science and Engineering blog explores: innovation, technology, research, education, economics, gadgets, health care and scientific inquiry.

Global Engineering Education Study includes a great deal of useful information. Universities partnering in the study include: Technische UniversitÃ¤t Darmstadt, Germany; Georgia Institute of Technology, USA; MIT, USA; Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China and University of Tokyo, Japan.

This unique collaboration will study the influence and importance of technological expertise and education on the competitiveness of nations, people, and companies. At the heart of this initiative is a comprehensive study designed to reflect a broad spectrum of topics dealing with all aspects of engineering and natural sciences.

Recommendations include:

Global competence needs to become a key qualification of engineering graduates
Transnational mobility for engineering students, researchers, and professionals needs to become a priority
Global engineering excellence depends critically on a mutual commitment to partnerships, especially those that link engineering education to professional practice
Research on engineering in a global context is urgently needed
