Building a shared understanding of the skills and competences in order to respond to the current global technical challenges

摘要

A pan-European team, including the representatives from 45 European universities, is working on an EU supported project to firstly explore and then provide models for ways in which Higher Education Institutions of Europe in the Electrical and Information Engineering disciplines can respond to current challenges. This paper presents the objectives and actual results of the EU supported project which runs from October 2012 to November 2015, named SALEIE - Strategic Alignment of Electrical and Information Engineering in European Higher Education Institutions. We describe in this paper the preliminary results of the project's work packages WP3 (Global Challenges) and WP4 (Widening Participation and Student Support).
