From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

current task: fix the "global engineering cultures" paragraph. the current link/citation is not existent, and there are better sources for the information the original authors were discussing. i am expanding on the topic as there have been more studies, courses, and research done in global engineering and cultural competency in engineering since 2005.

Global engineering cultures[edit]

The interdisciplinary field of Science and Technology Studies (STS) contains coursework that covers aspects of global engineering and cultural competency.

In 2003, a project titled "Engineering Cultures: Building the Global Engineer" was approved and funded by the NSF. It was done by combined effort of Virginia Tech and Colorado School of Mines to "help engineering students become global engineers by learning to define and solve problems in the context of differing cultural and national perspectives." [1][2]


MY NOTES --->

some courses/info on field of STS : [3] [4][5]

drawing from STS, the first paper out the group that got the above NSF funding came out in 1999 actually https://peer.asee.org/engineering-cultures-engineering-problem-solving-through-humanistic-and-global-perspectives

need to look into these papers and reviews on these topics to expand this section of the article - right now, this section only exists based on one funded research paper/study. more work has been done in this space since then.

prior edits (uploaded live into article the following edits along with a few other minor edits and citations):

below are copied and edited from Engineering education research

intro section with links:

"Engineering education research (EER) is the field of inquiry that creates knowledge which aims to define, inform, and improve the education of engineers. It achieves this through research on topics such as: epistemology, policy, assessment, pedagogy, diversity, amongst others, as they pertain to engineering."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Policy[edit][edit]

Engineering education policy applied to program requirements and curricula is externally driven to some degree. ABET accreditation has incorporated industrial demands as part of the college and university program accreditation process. ABET EC 2000 emphasizes both technical (design, problem solving) and professional skills (teamwork, communication, ethical/global thinking). In 2021, Deans from Big 10+ University Colleges of Engineering wrote a letter of support to ABET to urge more specific criteria in the general assessment related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). [6]

The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) promotes the improvement of engineering education. The ASEE Board of Directors has issued several statements related to public engineering education policy and in direct response to executive orders from the White House.[7]

my edits below pasted into the globalization section:

Globalization[edit][edit]

According to Borrego and Bernhard, international collaborations are developing in an effort to create global competencies in engineering students. Engineering global competency is the possession of "the knowledge, ability, and predisposition to work effectively with people who define and solve problems differently than they do." Educational programs that emphasize global engineering competencies research the development and assessment of global competency within the engineering practice.

Examples of programs in global engineering competency include:

More examples are listed in Global Engineering Education. Research and development departments in transnational companies also contribute to international educational research. There are various methods for assessing competency and debates on how global and cultural competence training impacts engineering education.[16][17][18][19]


---------------------------------------------------------------

My general notes:

This wiki article is a bit outdated and seems to include mostly the origins of engineering education research but not enough detail on where the field currently stands, no information on current graduate programs in the field, and no details about the work being performed in this field, especially from a policy perspective on how EER can and has shaped engineering programs.
