Liberal Studies in Engineering

Description

The past few decades have seen significant efforts directed towards the renovation of undergraduate engineering education - emphasis on active learning, engineering design, project and problem based learning, study/work abroad, online enhancement of courses, entrepreneurship, service learning: and we should include ABET's reverting of criteria for accreditation as part of this picture. In this, efforts to attract a broader spectrum of youth into the profession have been critically important. To what degree have these efforts succeeded? What barriers have they revealed? How does Liberal Studies in Engineering fit into this panorama?
