ANNUAL CONFERENCE

The Leonardo da Vinci Medal is the highest distinction SEFI can bestow to living persons who have made an outstanding contribution to engineering education, which has had an international significance. And, this year, for his innovative approach to education, pioneering efforts in digital transformation and his international impact, the 2022 Leonardo da Vinci Medal was awarded to:

SEFI Leonardo da Vinci Medalist 2022

PODCAST

Mia Stephens

In our second episode, we welcomed Mia Stephens, an Advisory Product Manager with JMP, a corporate partner of SEFI, and part of SAS Institute, an American multinational developer of analytics software, to talk about how statistical thinking is key to understanding engineering processes and process variation, and thus process improvement. 

WEBINAR

November 21, 2022 at 3pm – 5pm CET

Did you know that in order to contribute to societal challenges, engineering students must learn to interact with societal stakeholders and incorporate their views into technological development? Our guest speakers: Verena Schulze Greiving-Stimberg and Klaasjan Visscher will address this theme in our next SEFI@work online session.

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING EDUCATION

    Sustainability in Engineering Education – Integration and Transformation Approaches

    We invite contributions to a new special issue of the European Journal of Engineering Education on sustainability in engineering education. The focus is on how sustainability and sustainable development can be meaningfully integrated in engineering education, and how even more profound sustainability transformations can be achieved in, as well as through, engineering education.

      Survey on Digitalisation of the Engineering Curriculum

      Emergency remote instruction during the COVID pandemic has shown that an engineering degree can be taught online; however, as we emerge from the pandemic it is timely to consider which parts of the curriculum matter most for student learning, and whether they should return to face to face delivery, or move towards digital native forms of learning. For this reason, we seek to understand how these perceptions vary across the global engineering education community, and so it is important that we have responses from academics worldwide.
