| The Phase I report of the Engineer of 2020 Project, Visions of Engineering in the New Century, identified the attributes and abilities engineers will need to perform well in a world driven by rapid technological advancements, national security needs, aging infrastructure in developed countries, environmental challenges brought about by population growth and diminishing resources, and the creation of new disciplines at the interfaces between engineering and science. To ensure that future engineers have these capabilities, they must be educated to be not only technically proficient, but also ethically grounded global citizens who can become leaders in business and public service. This Phase II report provides recommendations to guide engineering educators, employers, professional societies, and government agencies as they reengineer the "system of systems," the engineering education process. |  |
