World Engineering Education Forum 2015
Engineering Education for a Resilient Society
WELCOME
WELCOME
Dear participants of WEEF 2015, dear members of the world community of Engineering Education,
It is a great privilege for us to warmly welcome you to Florence for the 2015 Forum, which follows previous ones held in
Singapore, Lisboa, Buenos Aires, Cartagena and Dubai. To host such an outstanding, top level meeting of Engineering Education
stakeholders is, for us, a great honor and has been a grand challenge. We are confident that the scientific programme, together
with the opportunities to meet each other and discuss the future of engineering education will meet your expectations: we
have worked hard over the past two years to make this possible.
The World Engineering Education Forum has become a unique opportunity for our community to exchange and discuss new
ideas, and we expect WEEF 2015 to provide an opportunity to do the same, while renewing a consolidated tradition.
Looking back at the past 10 years of IFEES activities (the umbrella organisation, which stands behind the Forum every year), we
can be proud of the achievements we have made. Since the inception of the International Federation of Engineering Education
Societies in 2006, IFEES has grown to include more than fifty members and representatives from all continents of the world.
In addition to founding the Global Engineering Deans Council (GEDC), the International Institute for Developing Engineering
Academics (IIDEA) and the Student Platform for Engineering Education Development (SPEED), IFEES collaborations facilitate
a myriad of conferences, exchanges, mutual learning opportunities and events throughout the year related to Engineering
Education globally. IFEES is excited to continue in its mission to enhance the effectiveness of member organizations, diminish
the isolation of the different organizations globally and contribute to the overall improvement of Engineering Education. A
critical dimension of IFEES is to connect associations, student, academia and corporate community representatives.
WEEF 2015 has proposed as a general theme of discussion Engineering Education for a Resilient Society. All of us can imagine
something different in reference to this concept, but surely we all will agree this theme to be a top priority for our engineering
schools all over the world. The need of resilience is felt unanimously to be an acute demand in our globalized and technologically
driven society: governing bodies, civil authorities and international organizations are looking for solutions that only engineers
can deliver. Let us not fail in the face of this expectation.
In fact, we are truly glad that so many organisations have joined WEEF 2015: IGIP, ENAEE, CoPI, SEFI/EEDC and GEDC, ABET,
SPEED, BEST, EUCEET and ASIBEI. This allows their respective members to meet each other at the same time and place; thus,
leading to a fruitful exchange of ideas and expertise. This will be the major outcome and added value for all participants.
IFEES President Uriel Cukierman and the Forum Chairman will be moderating a session organized by IFEES members LACCEI,
CONFEDI, ABENGE, ASIBEI, ISTEC, ANFEI and ACOFI as well as the Latin American Deans Chapter of the GEDC on Education in
Engineering in Latin America. Additionally, we are pleased to celebrate with our dear ACOFI colleagues their 40th anniversary.
Furthermore, we are sincerely honored and grateful to our corporate partners who have decided to join us: ABET, AIRBUS Group,
DASSAULT SYSTEMES, GENERAL ELECTRIC, MATHWORKS, QUANSER and TOTAL. They have responded with a great spirit of
collaboration and partnership to our call, as they have already done in the past.
Last but not least: we are excited about the participation of the two major student organisations in engineering and technology
(SPEED and BEST) from which we expect, as usual, a very innovative and original contribution.
We have reviewed more than 300 paper submissions from 61 countries and from all continents. The selection was very
competitive due to the room and time limitations. Finally the best 235 papers could be scheduled for the scientific program
of the conference with 8 parallel tracks. The conference will furthermore have approximately 22 Special Sessions and Panels as
well as 12 Workshops and Round tables.
We are extremely grateful to all individuals, organisations and institutions that have made WEEF 2015 possible: the hosting
institution (University of Florence, School of Engineering) and its staff, IFEES, IGIP, AIM Group International, SPEED and BEST,
among many others. We also wish to acknowledge the International Advisory and Program Committee, chaired by IFEES Past
President J.C. Quadrado, for its outstanding service and support provided along the scientific preparation of the Forum. Last
but not least: a special thank you to IGIP and to the team of Michael Auer in Villach for the very professional and efficient
management of the paper selection procedure.
Welcome in Florence!

Room 4
CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT OF STUDENT-CENTERED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN LEARNING
Peter J. Shull
Penn State University, USA
Faculty often speak of students not taking responsibility: not reading assignments, missing homework, or not participating in lab assignments and still expect a good grade! Simply put, many students are not taking responsibility for their learning. But I don’t believe that the reason is because students don’t want to do so. My question is “So, what are we (faculty) going to do about it?” The common reply is “It’s their responsibility, they are in college!” However, doing nothing does not produce change.
This workshop is about providing faculty with proven tools that instill student responsibility for their own learning. We will focus on pragmatic and effective methods that create a clear understanding of what is meant by student responsibility for learning. It clarifies both effective and ineffective behaviors of both students and faculty, and how to instill these skills. Specific active and experiential lessons will be presented in a highly animated format.

OUTCOMES (COMPETENCY) BASED EDUCATION PLANNING
Lueny Morell
InnovaHiEd, Puerto Rico (USA)
Competencies are driving engineering education curricula worldwide. Yet planning and managing outcomes (competency) based education is not an easy task. This workshop will cover fundamental steps in the managing of outcomes (competency) based education. From defining competencies and learning outcomes and how they can be defined with stakeholders to ways on how to distributing them throughout the curriculum to understanding how these competencies can be developed in students and developing an assessment strategy to measure the level of attainment. The workshop provides a primer of the fundamental steps in developing an outcomes based education and is designed for engineering education leadership, faculty, industry and others interested in learning what it takes to develop a strategy for implementing or innovating the curricula based on outcomes (competency).

CRAFTING COMPLEX PROBLEMS FOR A TYPICAL ENGINEERING CURRICULUM
Khairiyah Mohd-Yusof, Syed Ahmad Helmi
Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Malaysia
The current world-wide needs for engineers to solve complex problems resulted in complex problem solving to be heavily required for accreditation of engineering programs under the Washington Accord. Nevertheless, the question remains on how to actually develop the skills for solving complex problems among engineering students and how can these problems be crafted so that they are suitable and manageable for a typical engineering course. This workshop provides hands-on activities for crafting engineering problems. Participants will be introduced to the basics of crafting open ended problems systematically, with special emphasis on developing essential skills and knowledge for the workplace. Characteristics of good problems and how to ensure problems that enhance learning will be discussed. The facilitators will also illustrate approaches to include scaffolding of the skills for supporting students learning as part of the problem activity.

Keynote Address Ahsan Kareem
Most hazards become disasters due to the vulnerability of communities, Hurricane Katrina is a good example. In recognition of the increasing impact of disasters and their complexities there is a critical need to enhance resilience of communities to disasters which involves both technical and societal issues. Community resilience can be viewed at three dimensions that are interrelated: having a low probability of failure, minimizing the severity of negative consequences of disasters and recovering expeditiously from the impact of disasters. A framework of resilience for a built environment involves assessing the impact of multiple natural and manmade hazards, degradation and potentially climate change in terms of established performance goals, mitigation, response and recovery. In most engineering curricula the role of disaster risk reduction is sprinkled around different design courses and in light of the impact of disasters and the need for building resilient communities it is critical that we reassess our curricula and introduce the element of resilience to disasters in both horizontal and vertical tiers of courses. The lecture would include examples of hazards leading to disasters, modeling portfolios couched in cyberinfrastructure, mitigation, response and recovery and a sample of suggested changes in engineering curricula to build a culture of resilience.
Keynote Address Francesc Pedró
While this is not the first time that a widespread faith on the transformational power of technology in education seems to be challenged by the reality of facts, a perfect storm seems to be approaching. Technological developments, both in devices and applications, look now closer to the end-user needs in education, and certainly young people are already benefiting from them –sometimes in unexpected and maybe inappropriate ways. Schools and teachers, at least in some countries, are now demanding more from educational technology as the social and economic expectations about education also increase and evolve. Against this context of yet another wave of high expectations, this contribution reviews where we stand at promoting, assessing and scaling-up technology-supported innovations in education and what are the critical factors that could help institutions and education systems to transition towards a much more engaging and efficient use of technology as a window of opportunity for the transformation of education. Yet, whether disruptive or not, technology-supported innovations have to demonstrate their added value in a context where learning outcomes are seen as the key quality measure. Particular attention in this respect is given to capacity development and why a much more user-centered approach should be at the core of technology-supported innovations – and it is not yet.
Keynote Address Kenji Okazaki
Most of deaths in earthquakes are caused by collapse of vulnerable houses. If house owners could have strengthened (retrofitted) their vulnerable houses before a large earthquake, most of deaths could be avoided. Similarly, if people could have evacuated to safer places in a timely manner, most of them would not be killed by floods, tsunamis, and cyclones. The problem here is, however, that majority tends not to make such decisions, i.e. retrofitting their vulnerable house proactively, and evacuating promptly after receiving warnings. It is therefore individual decision making which matters to improve resilience against disasters, particularly in urban arears, where people are densely populated and therefore one’s decision making would easily affect the risks of many other people. For example, collapsing houses would kill the occupants in earthquakes, but also would delay relief, evacuation, and firefighting activities by blocking roads and spreading fires. The individual decision is made based on his/her risk perception which would be influenced by personal experiences and economic, social, and cultural environments. Our research findings show how people’s risk perception is different from country to country. Japan’s experience is introduced to show how the governments are making efforts to promote retrofitting of vulnerable houses with various financial and technical supports, but only few people have been convinced. Finally, it is discussed how people can be convinced to take appropriate actions proactively for resilience against disasters.

INTERGENERATIONAL PANEL: ENGINEERING EDUCATION FOR MULTIFACETED ENGINEERS
Session Chair: Rohit Kandakatla, SPEED
Summary: Engineering plays a great role in the development of a modern country and sustaining an international
competitive advantage. As technology progresses, the engineering education dimensions become more and more
diverse. However, engineering education continues to mainly focus on the phase of organizational level, rather than the
individual level. Academic requirements, such as curriculum design, technique development, instructing approaches, and the
corresponding industrial needs etc.. This year, with the theme of “Engineering Education for multifaceted engineers”, we
pose the following questions to the panelists and the audience: can engineers effectively start up their own careers, or
companies if business is included in EE? Why should we include art in EE, and how does art interface with engineering design?
Should, and how, can engineering curriculum be structured to include education in resiliency for engineering design?

Recovery after disaster tends to be a long drawn-out process in which conditions constantly change.
Nevertheless, there are many errors that are frequently repeated, to the detriment of the reconstruction process.
Reconstruction involves not merely physical rebuilding but the recovery of lives, livelihoods, communities and their political
and economic autonomy. A tension exists between reconstruction processes that are top-down and those that are bottom-up.
Perhaps the biggest and most common error is to err on the side of the former, and thus to ignore, thwart or underrate the
participation of the beneficiaries of the recovery process. Education is thus needed at various levels. It can help senior decision
makers in national and regional governments appreciate the benefits of stakeholder-led reconstruction. At the other end of
the scale, it can help the survivors of disaster understand the options that are available to them and design a solution that is
appropriate to their needs, including their livelihoods. Education can help to disseminate viable models of reconstruction
and explain the pitfalls of those that have failed in the past. It can teach basic skills (for example, in hazard-proof building and
in managing reconstruction funds) and it can also act as a forum for the exchange of ideas that will enrich the rebuilding.
Education should be seen as an enabling process; one that reveals choices, not one that imposes limitations on the
beneficiaries and participants.
BUILDING INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION
Ramakrishna Seeram, National University of Singapore, Singapore
Thousands of engineering schools irrespective of where they are functioning are facing new challenges, opportunities and
expectations in hyper-connected societies and competitive economic value chains. This requires us to reimagine engineering
to prepare next generation of students for future opportunities while enabling them to build resilient societies. This lecture
aims at what needs to be done in reimagining engineering education, research and entrepreneurship, and highlight relevant
examples.

KEYNOTE:
A FUTURE RIGHT FIRST TIME WITH DIGITAL INNOVATION IN LEARNING
Xavier Fouger, Senior Director, Global Academia Programs, Dassault Systemes
A more resilient world calls for new generations of engineers better prepared to address the challenges of the decades to
come. Digital innovation tools can bring the indispensable context into the classroom. Among powerful instruments
conceptualized to convey the magnitude of issues to be addressed, the grand challenges for engineering defined by the
US National Academy of Engineering are an efficient vector of motivational contextualization as well as socio-technical
complexities to mobilize students into purposeful activities. When such challenges meet the power of digital representations,
the learning experience takes new dimensions and produces the systemic thought process students need to cultivate for
better careers in a better world. The presentation provides a lively tour of some shining examples from industry and academia
across the planet and opens new perspective in educational practices.

HOW TO INVOLVE STUDENTS IN THE ENGINEERING EDUCATION
Auditorium
Summary: Students have been asked to take a more active role in their education. Several actions have been pushing them to evaluate and suggest new approaches to teaching and learning. In BEST we have been giving them the opportunity to share their experiences and how do they feel about it and to help us draw and propose new strategies. We believe that education only reaches excellency if students are also involved in it. The panel will join student, companies and academics to discuss what are the next steps we can give, together, to keep involving students in engineering. Good practices will be shared and we aim to inspire others to make changes in their own in their universities, companies and organizations.

SPECIAL SESSION ON “EARTH RESILIENCE”
Session Chair: Ting Lin, Marquette University, USA
USE-INSPIRED BASIC RESEARCH AND EDUCATION FOR RESILIENT AND SUSTAINABLE INFRASTRUCTURES
Ting Lin, Marquette University, USA
Summary: Natural and anthropogenic hazards pose significant challenges to civil infrastructures. This presents opportunities in investigating site-specific hazards in structural engineering to aid mitigation and adaptation efforts. High performance computing and visualization further facilitate research, education, and outreach for resilient and sustainable infrastructures under multiple hazards in the face of climate change. Use-inspired basic research, which has high value in both knowledge and utility, can play a key role in launching a new generation of engineering education for a resilient society.
This study extends use-inspired basic research to education through designing individually customized learning and motivated research experience, facilitating early exposure to rigorous research-cycle teaching and advising, and establishing a positive research-teaching loop that feeds research into new curriculum and brings classroom curiosity to keep research alive. Such integrative research-education approach results in a “self-interdisciplinary” research group that matches individual talent to specialty development in one major and two minor disciplines with independent and collaborative elements.
Recent (a) advancement in hazard-consistent ground motion selection methodology, (b) progress in ground motion simulation validation dialogue on tall buildings, (c) utilization of high performance computing in seismic hazard characterization and structural response analysis, (d) pilot study on probabilistic sea-level rise hazard analysis, (e) course design in Performance-Based Engineering and Engineering Reliability, and (f ) experiment on visualizing emergency response under extreme motions jumpstart this pursuit with a major focus on earthquake hazard that leads towards multi-hazard sustainability. It showcases the potential of earthquake engineering that is beyond its original boundaries and opens up conversations for an all-hazards investigation.
By extending use-inspired basic research to teaching and learning, this study creates research and education environments motivated by societal use and tailored to individual interest to foster ownership and responsibility. The “self-interdisciplinary” research team concept can serve as a potential model for workforce development with diverse backgrounds and specialty areas, thereby encouraging free sharing of ideas among researchers and educators alike.

Summary: The world is changing very quickly and the four year time frame devoted to educating an engineer is becoming
more challenged with providing both the depth and diversity of topics required for globally competent engineers. As
advances in engineering are quickly occurring, the knowledge obtained in universities is rapidly needing to be updated and
augmented. Thus, an engineering education for the future, will likely need to begin with activities prior to college
admission and will certainly need to extend along one’s career path. Thus, the thinking of engineering education needs to
be expanded well beyond an undergraduate and graduate degree. This session will explore the ramifications of such changes,
the implications for curricular reform and the extension of learning through one’s career.

Summary: The hands-on lab has been an integral part of undergraduate programs in most parts of the world for decades and largely labs remain a very effective and popular approach to bringing complex concepts to life. But in this age of flipped classrooms, massive online learning, along with the realities of constrained budgets, what can we expect in the ongoing evolution of lab pedagogy in the decades to come. This session brings several leading institutions and industry to offer a dynamic “progress report” on some very innovative and visionary approaches to the lab of the future. The session will be moderated by well-known engineering education advocate Mr. Paul Gilbert, CEO of Quanser. Joining him will be senior representatives from two institutions that have recently initiated bold lab projects in collaboration that push conventional lab concepts to creative and unorthodox directions. The format of this engaging session will include live demonstrations, videos, and significant time served from vigorous open discussion.

ENGINEERING EDUCATION FOR INDUSTRY 4.0
Sabina Jeschke, Vice-Dean RWTH Aachen, Germany
USING STORYTELLING TECHNIQUES IN PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING
David Guralnick, President Kaleidoscope Learning New York, USA, and President International E-Learning Association - IELA
Keynote Address Sabina Jeschke
Based on the technological concept of cyber-physical systems and the internet of things, the vision of “industry 4.0” is characterized by highly individualized and at the same time cross-linked production processes. Among other aspects it entails the vision of the smart factory, allows cars to drive without a driver and provides the infrastructure for collaboration in the “global village”. In consideration of future employment domains, engineering students have to be prepared to meet the demands of society 4.0 and industry 4.0 – resulting from the characteristics of the fourth industrial revolution. The talk will discuss three hypotheses, which underline implications for engineering education:
“Informatics is the new latin”: Smart factories require engineers who “speak code”!
“Startups are the new motor for the economy”: Innovation comes from fresh minds!

“Transparency is the new green”: Learning Analytics will change the ways we teach!
In the context of the development from purely document based management systems to complex virtual learning environments (VLEs), a shift towards more interactive and collaborative components within higher educational e-learning is absolutely necessary. As a result, engineering education is faced with a large potential field of research, which ranges from the technical development and didactical conception of new VLEs to new forms of human-machine-interaction – who wouldn’t want to work hand in hand with a robot?

Keynote Address david guralnick
Successful professional education and training experiences reach beyond the simple delivery of information, creating an
environment in which learners can gain a deep understanding of concepts and how to apply them in practice. Storytelling
can be a valuable technique, by grabbing learners’ attention and providing them with realistic situations and examples, so
that their learning can transfer to their real-life experiences. In this session, I will explore successful uses of stories in
online professional education and training courses. I will consider the use of stories in areas outside of education and training,
discuss ways in which stories can be useful in educational contexts, and show brief examples. Finally, I will discuss
how storytelling techniques can apply to education and training in a variety of subject areas.

EUCEET PLENARY SESSION
CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION FOR A MORE RESILIENT SOCIETY
Session Chair: diego Lo Presti, University of Pisa, Italy
Summary: EUCEET Association is strongly involved in a process of modernization of Civil Engineering (CE) Curricula.
The final objective is to develop all – inclusive, innovative CE Curricula. To this end four macro – areas have been selected
(water related problems; resilient infrastructures, energy efficiency of buildings; sustainable buildings). The four workshops,
organized by EUCEET in the framework of WEEF 2015, are related to such macro – areas. On the other hand, the Plenary
Session offers two relevant examples of “Resilient Engineer” and “Resilient CE Structure”
Keynote lecture:
THE RESILIENT ENGINEER
Barry Clarke, University of Leeds, Past President of ICE, UK
TuESdAy, SEPT 22
Summary: An increase in the magnitude and frequency of extreme events together with increases in urbanisation and
population are testing the resilience of the social and economic infrastructure; that is the built environment. Over the years
improvements in technology and changes to regulations have improved the performance of the built environment.
This has raised community’s expectations but also lowered their resilience because of the success of the engineering
profession to produce increasingly robust but complex systems. This is not sustainable because of the extreme events
and because the increased resources required to create a resilient environment is contributing to climate change; a major
cause of the extreme events. Engineering is core to a resilient society and the role of the engineer has to change
to help create a community that is able to cope with extreme events in an environment that is becoming more
harmful. Achieving this means a fundamental shift in engineering education because the role of the engineer and
engineering tools are changing. The 21st century engineer can no longer rely on the education that delivered the
20th century built environment. The 21st century engineer has to be resilient to cope with the pace of change that includes a
shift in design placing more emphasis on outcomes and a shift in engaging society to help communities become
more resilient.

THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA: A HISTORY OF RESILIENCE
Carlo viggiani, Università di Napoli Federico II, Italy, XVII Comitato per la salvaguardia della Torre di Pisa
Summary: The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the best known and most treasured monuments of the world; it was erected
in the Middle Age, at the time of maximum power of the city of Pisa. The tower is founded on highly compressible soils
and started leaning since its construction; there are evident traces of the corrections made by the old masons to counteract
the effects of the inclination. The determination in completing the construction, in spite of the evident inclination, is indeed
an outstanding case of resilience. Further interventions carried out in the XIX and XX centuries had doubtful or even
detrimental effects. In the 1990’s the overhang had reached the value of 4.7 m and was increasing at a rate of 1.5 mm per year;
an analysis of the situation showed that a collapse was to be expected within some decades. The activity of
the International Committee installed in 1990 is reported. The internationally accepted conventions for the conservation
and preservation of valuable historic buildings require that their essential characters should be preserved, with their
history, craftsmanship and enigmas. Any intrusive interventions on the tower had thus to be kept to an absolute
minimum and permanent stabilisation schemes involving propping or visible support were unacceptable and in any case
could have triggered the collapse of the fragile masonry. The technique of underexcavation provided an ultra soft method of
increasing the stability of the tower, which is completely consistent with the requirements of architectural conservation. It
produced a decrease of the overhang by about 0,4 m; at present the tower is practically motionless. It is believed that the
geotechnical stabilisation has been finally attained; the efforts to this aim for over a century may be seen as another fine
example of engineering resilience.

WHY CREATING ALGORITHMS IS THE ‘NEW LITERACY
Alex Tarchini, Mathworks
Summary: Recently, there have been provocative articles asserting that coding is the “new literacy” but coding, like writing, is a mechanical act happening through an upgraded input/output and storage medium. Writing “if” statements and “for” loops is straightforward to teach people, but it does not make them any more capable. Despite the fact that the entire world is learning to code, coding without the ability to understand and express the characteristics of a complex system, will not help students to realize what is plausible for a computer system to fulfill and what are the trade-offs to accept when reality meets the digital world. Also, many are the challenges of manual coding, especially if the goal isn’t simply to implement something, but rather to figure out the RIGHT, CONSISTENT, OPTIMAL design. Creating algorithms that model and control systems and simulating them is what we consider a better definition of “new literacy”. It is also an activity with desirable side effects, as in order to represent a system, we have to understand what it is exactly and the more we understand it, the better we can model it so triggering a sort of virtuous hermeneutical circle. In addition, performing algorithm design in a computer-assisted environment, brings substantial added value in terms of additional services such as automation of repetitive operations or help in the evaluation of design alternatives. Let’s explore together a few examples of how the modern literacy of algorithm design is finding its way in contemporary engineering.

the European Union. The main goals of ROSE are:
• To enhance the attractiveness of STEM disciplines, in particular among female pupils;
• To promote a balanced representation of the society among students choosing a technology/science-oriented HE;
• In the long term, to ensure the labour market with a more adequate number of scientists, engineers and technologists, in
particular female ones.
The most relevant topics of ROSE are:
• Gender equality / equal opportunities;
• Key Competences (incl. mathematics and literacy) - basic skills;
• Labour market issues incl. career guidance / youth unemployment.
After one year from the start of the project the session will present the activities performed so far and the results achieved.

Summary: The design and management of Civil engineering infrastructures and water related infrastructure in particular
have to be resilient and adaptive to a number of threats and societal changes as there are: the effects of climate change (sealevel rise, increased frequency and intensity of storms), limited availability of natural resources (fresh water, energy) and the
increased concern about the quality of the natural environment and its bio-diversity.
The structures should be adaptive to yet unknown future changes in the design parameters. They should be flexible to adjust
during their life time to different circumstances and conditions; they should be designed from “cradle to cradle”: their
components should be re-usable or recyclable. All this requires a re-thinking of design methodologies, choices of materials,
construction methods and maintenance and management of water related infrastructure.

Summary: Current buildings await engineering solutions to perform the sustainability, resilience, health, security, and
comfort of living. These are tasks and challenges for multidisciplinary teams of engineers and architects in the context of
sustainable communities. Sustainable buildings are more than just environmentally “friendly”; they also must consider
economics and social effects in their design and construction. Nevertheless the sustainable buildings and environment in
which we live are subjected to hazards resulting from geophysical and hydro - meteorological events; earthquakes, floods,
and hurricanes can modify the Earth form and become disasters. The buildings have to be resilient. Referring to the building
resilience, it can be categorized based on performance objective, response parameters and quantitative measures.
The resilience of the sustainable buildings can be conveyed in terms of education by teaching the subject to students:
curricula of the subjects at bachelor level should involve simple and direct terms so that the student can understand and
receive the knowledge regarding on resilient buildings and communities; at master level the design of curricula should be a
holistic view and integrated approach necessary in order to move towards a sustainable built environment.

Summary: The topic of women and girls in engineering and STEM fields has challenged educators and policymakers worldwide to expand access and increase retention. However, the issues faced by different institutions, nations, and regions as they work to support gender diversity differ greatly around the world. This panel will present perspectives on gender diversity in engineering and engineering education from around the world. Panelists will highlight obstacles and resiliencies in these diverse contexts and will examine the variety and complexity of issues related to gender in engineering education around the world. The panel will share ideas and comments on policies and programs to put into practice. This one hour panel will conceptually feed into the broad IFEES action session for inclusion and global engagement.

Summary: Resilience indicates the capacity for a body, an organization; a mechanical system (linear or non linear) to find its initial properties after a deterioration. Education and Research are perturbed by some commercial activities on software distribution. Many work of PHD thesis and educational courses are often disturbed by the confidentiality attached to the results and the knowhow by software editors or their customers.
From this point of view, the Open source applied to engineering software is an opportunity for researchers and teachers. This mini symposium is a contribution to the reflection of the scientific community. Testimony from members of Code_Aster Professional Network (research, industry, services) will attend the special session.

Summary: Do employers look for resilience among graduates as a skill or competence to be evaluated alongside other recruitment criteria? If so, what kind of skill is it, and can graduates develop resilience during their studies? Perhaps resilience reflects an engineer’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances and challenging environments – can this be taught as part of an education programme or must it be learnt in the working environment? In this interactive session we’ll explore the meaning of resilience for industry representatives including Airbus Group and Total, with a view to understanding how universities can enable their graduates to learn about resilience in a meaningful way for their careers as engineers
and as future leaders.

Summary: Widely understood infrastructure is one of the key elements on which our everyday life is based, and on which
depends. From one point of view it is very vulnerable to be damaged and must be somehow protected, but at the same
time it is very resistant – even badly damaged can survive and regenerate. But only under one condition – with the help of a
men – creator, user, manager and destructor of it.
The recommendations of the EU Horizon 2020 document include specific reference to the built environment. In particular, the
concept of environmental resilience is relevant to many issues related to sustainability, efficiency, safety and economy of civil
engineering systems. Nowadays good civil engineering infrastructure design must include resilience aspects.
The main challenges of the idea of introducing and developing resilience infrastructures in educational activity may be
summarized considering the resilience against natural disasters (floodings, earthquakes, lack of electricity...) and including
maintenance, monitoring and long-life design, increasing demand of transportation for people and goods, related problems
of energy consumption and pollution, use of new materials...
Within a program it is proposed to produce a set of innovative guidelines to prepare university students to understand
the perceived problems of the developing European infrastructure and to induce a culture of understanding of how
large safety-critical civil engineering systems should function. The focus of the educational programs can be matters
representative to transportation systems, construction engineering, infrastructure systems and their management. Activities
that will lead to educate next generation civil engineers on both fundamental and innovative research results needed for
designing, constructing, managing, maintaining, operating and protecting efficient, resilient and sustainable civil
infrastructure systems will of the interest of the workshop partners.

Summary: Engineering is the key to resilience. We need to train engineers who are capable of dealing with unexpected challenges. That requires a change in the mind-set of the traditional engineering professor. Teaching staff in engineering will have to learn to think outside the box of their own discipline. Some faculty themselves may not have explicitly learned about what resilience means and what it looks like in engineering in the real world. The round table will allow a number of renowned experts on faculty development in engineering to present and discuss their views.

WORKSHOP “ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF BUILDINGS”
Session Chair: Tudor Bugnariu, Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest, Romania
Auditorium
Room Verde
Summary: The workshop deals with education and research matters in the field of Energy efficiency of buildings. Technical issues related to the plant efficiency, thermal isolation, use of new materials and micro - generation of renewable energy are discussed. Non technical issues like the visual impact on urban and environmental context and constraints about regulations for the preservation of historical centres are also considered. For existing built patrimony, the identification of the simple, cost-
effective energy efficiency upgrades by tuning the building services and operations, for optimal energetic performance.
Analysis on the current energy efficiency of building systems such as heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems, lighting, passive systems and opportunities for improvement will be presented in the context of the design of a new, bio-
climatic, nearly zero energy building (nZEB), housing an advanced research and innovation center in Bucharest.
Issues concerning the accreditation system of Civil Engineering Education in Taiwan, based on new regulations requiring the presence of a capstone course for each delivered program are presented.

Summary: The attribute of “resilience” is a complex and ambiguous trait for engineers to understand and apply, but it is crucial
to societies around the world. This workshop provides participants with an overview of internationally-validated attributes
of a “global engineer” that relate to resilience. Further, this workshop includes discussions and activities for educators,
administrators, and students to consider how to incorporate the teaching of resilience in their own classrooms. How can
educators provide learning opportunities that foster the acquisition of these attributes? How can they be assessed?

and Chief Executive Officer
Keynote Speakers:
Jamie Rogers is 2014-2015 ABET President. Since 1991, she has served the organization in different capacities, including
program evaluator, team chair, EAC Commissioner, PEV Training Facilitator, and member of numerous committees. Currently,
she is a University of Texas System Regents’ Outstanding Teacher, Professor and Associate Chair of the Department of
Industrial, Manufacturing, and Systems Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington.
Michael K. J. Milligan is the Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of ABET. Under his leadership, the organization
Summary: ABET, the global accreditor of college and university programs in applied science, computing, engineering, and
engineering technology, is an 83-year-old organization that has greatly evolved over its history to remain current and
relevant. It started out accrediting engineering programs in the US only and now has expanded both its geographical and
programatic reaches.
The organization has also become increasingly more diverse, through the inclusion of new associate member societies, such
as WEPAN, SWE and NACME. This session will highligh ABET’s current outreach efforts and how professionals like Jamie Rogers
have helped shape the organization and position it for the future.

ENGINEERING EDUCATION WITHIN THE BUILDING OF THE EUROPEAN HIGHER EDUCATION AREA
Sebastião Feyo de Azevedo, Rector of the University of Porto
Speakers:
Bernard Remaud, ENAEE Président
Jean-Claude Arditti, Chair of the ENAEE Label Committee
denis Mcgrath, ENAEE Vice Président
Summary: Rooted in the so-called Bologna process, launched in 1999 to build a European Area for Higher Education, ENAEE
aims at building a transnational framework for the engineering education, in order to enhance the quality of engineering
graduates, to facilitate the mobility of professional engineers and to promote quality and innovation in engineering
education. To achieve these goals, ENAEE has established the EUR-ACE® framework as a de-centralized system for
the standards of accreditation of engineering education degree programmes, leading to the pan-European recognition of
national accreditation decisions (EUR-ACE Accord, November 2014).
The EUR-ACE® label (European Accreditation of Engineering programmes) has been awarded to about 2000 programmes
in Europe and worldwide; it guarantees the quality of an engineering degree programme and its suitability as an entry route
to the engineering profession (pre-professional accreditation), while assuring academic quality and relevance for
the “engineering” job. Based on the European experience with its wide diversity of educational systems, the session will be
mainly focused on the prospects for the quality assurance of engineering education within a global perspective.

Marat Checheibaev, Kyrgyz State Technical University, Kirgizistan
Talat Magrupov, Tashkent Sate Technical University, Uzbekistan
Summary: Set up and start implementing a system of quality assurance (QA) of engineering education in Central Asia (CA) countries, finalized to the pre-professional accreditation of engineering programmes (i.e. accreditation of educational programmes as entry route to the engineering profession). The accredited programmes must satisfy the same conditions required for the award of the EUR-ACE quality label, i.e. the EUR-ACE Framework Standards, the European Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ESG), and all related quality requirements and procedures.
The project is taking advantage of the experience in the European Higher Education Area (through ENAEE) and current efforts in Central Asia countries. The session will be focused on the main results of the QUEECA project with contributions from Central Asian partner countries which will be summarized and commented by the two moderators.
