-learning process, inpartnership with “full-time” regular faculty members. The impetus here is three fold. First, thegeneral belief that well-seasoned and experienced practitioners can be a tremendous resource totap; in combination with regular “full-time” faculty- who are, in most instances, the “research-type,” and who have not had the opportunity to practice engineering. Second, industry’sprevailing perception that engineering education does not prepare graduates adequately for thepractice. Therefore, from industry’s perspective, the quality of education for engineering practiceis seen as deficient. Third, blending practical experience in teaching design and design-relatedcourses is repeatedly emphasized by ABET, and by other engineering

for increased “relevancy” of engineering educationwith greater industry-academia collaboration on many fronts. It was inspired by a round tablediscussion, where engineering graduates of Region’s colleges have suggested ways to startdeveloping viable and enduring connections between local industries and the academicinstitutions of the Arab Gulf States. Strategies to help promote the collaboration effort areoutlined. In particular, activities (plans, and scenarios) perceived as effective in closing the gapbetween academia and industries are described. Training, capstone courses, consulting by facultymembers, and joint research projects, aimed at serving the interest of both parties (academia &the industrial partners) are also addressed. The

The difficulty of scaling-up from a successful effort with a small group of students to a larger student body. 8. The university system favors and rewards research, and is designed to train students for graduate schools and research, which overshadows the work to develop quantities of I4.0 skilled workers who will work in industry after an undergraduate degree. 9. University research is often given priority over workforce preparation. 10. Community colleges have to balance college-prep track against skilled-trades tracks, while the need for I4.0

, and Master’s and Ph.D. in Engineering Mechanics from Iowa State University. Dr. Das teaches a variety of courses ranging from freshmen to advanced graduate level such as Mechanics of Materials, Introductory and Advanced Finite Element Method, Engineering Design, Introduction to Mechatronics, Mechatronic Modeling and Sim- ulation, Mathematics for Engineers, Electric Drives and Electromechanical Energy Conversion. He led the effort in the college to start several successful programs: an undergraduate major in Robotics and Mechatronic Systems Engineering, a graduate certificate in Advanced Electric Vehicles. Dr. Das’s areas of research interests are modeling and simulation of multi-disciplinary engineering problems
