The former MIT President, Dr. Charles Vest in his lecture “Educating Engineers for 2020 and Beyond” said that the frontiers
of engineering students would be the intersection of physical,life and information sciences…so-called bio,nano,info…

In order to meet these conditions, 21st century engineers must have the capacity to:
  • Design to meet safety, reliability, environmental, cost, operational, and maintenance objectives.
  • Realize products
  • Create, operate, and sustain complex systems
  • Understand the physical constructs and the economic, industrial, social, political, and international
    context in which engineering is practiced
  • Understand and participate in the process of research
  • Gain the intellectual skills needed for lifelong learning

Please join your colleagues in beautiful San Diego, California for a 1-1/2 day conference to share ideas about advancesin Educating
Next Generation Engineers. Areas of teaching covered in this conference include: all engineering fields,nano-technology,biotechnology,
nano-biotechnology, etc. Session topics will include but not limited to: technologies in teaching and learning, laboratory innovations,
and issues in design education, agile teaching, problem driven teaching, game based learning, community-based learning,
work-based learning,inquiry-based learning, project based learning, team-based learning, internet-based learning, etc.
