This book presents the case for Project-Based Learning within
Socio-Technical Systems in Engineering Education. The book
highlights the importance of projects as Socio-Technical Systems as
a means for supporting and enhancing international accreditation of
engineering programs. Practical examples illustrate how
Socio-Technical Systems are brought into the educational
environment through Project-Based Learning. The book goes on to
discusses the impact this may have on Engineering Education
practice. The work presented will enable engineering educators to
develop curricula that can respond to societal needs, while also
enhancing teaching and learning. It offers an approach to
engineering education that centers on engaging scholars in projects
that are located within socio-technical systems. University,
government and industry leaders will gain from this book as it
provides insight into strategic planning and partnership-building
for Engineering Education. We hope this book will further foster
deep scholarship of research to ready engineering faculties for
engaging responsibly with their surrounding communities. Features:
Offers applications of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Engineering
Education Matches elements of Socio-Technical Systems in Higher
Engineering Education, with the Exit Level Outcomes (ELOs) required
by professional engineering bodies Provides practical examples for
the establishment of project environments within an academic
faculty Shows examples in the success of execution of projects
involving engineering educators, researchers, program developers,
government agencies and industry partners Presents a framework to
develop Project-Based Learning in Engineering Education that
addresses Socio-Technical requirements and will enable engineering
educators to collaboratively develop engineering curricula with
industry that will respond to societal needs
