Aligning Humanitarian Attributes and Needs Between Academia, Industry, and Quality Assurance in Graduate Engineering Programmes: An EU-ASIA Survey
Abstract
There is growing interest in enabling competences such as creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving to engineering students by expanding their engagement to complex, interdisciplinary problems linked to global challenges. Optimal curriculum design aims at meeting quality assurance requirements and delivering graduate attributes (knowledge, skills, behaviours) needed from industry and at the same time also from the society for tackling humanitarian challenges. Evidence on how the needs of stakeholders (academia, industry, quality assurance) align to the integration of humanitarian attributes to engineering curricula is missing. This chapter presents and discusses the findings of a comparative qualitative study undertaken among higher education institutions, industry, and quality assurance agencies in Europe and Asia. Findings reveal how graduate attributes are perceived by various stakeholders in an attempt to demystify the suitability and effectiveness of engineering education practices within an interdisciplinary, inter-professional humanitarian context.
