environment was in a course called Electromagnetism fornon-electrical engineers. This course focuses more on engineering and technological literacy. Itconnects the ideas in coherent conceptual ways rather than competency approach which mostlyemphasises calculus, physics, and important definitions and equations that are dominant in thirdyear electromagnetism. The EM for non-electrical engineers (non-calculus based) deals withalmost all aspects of EM, including conceptual and practical issues of the field without anyrequired calculus. The class covers basic classical electromagnetism, moves to the later part ofthe 19th century and the early 20th century. There are discussions about electrodynamics,ideation of Quantum mechanics, Special relativity, some
in Portugal [10] and in the US[11].A similar approach was used also at Link¨oping University during a few years, until about tenyears ago. At that time, students in the five-year integrated Master’s program in MechanicalEngineering started their education with a broad introductory engineering course. This coursecovered a lot of different subjects as for example design, production technology, written and oralcommunication and ecological sustainability. The course unfortunately gained a bad reputationamong both students and teachers for being too vague, to lack clear focus and objectives, and forbad integration between the subjects. This ultimately led to a discontinuation of the course.Since then, there has been a quite compact resistance
