Second, what impact did EC2000 have on organizational policiesand practices, educational policies and practices that helped improve student learningoutcomes? A large amount of evidence collected in the research showed that theimplementation of the EC2000 had a positive impact on engineering programs, studentexperience, and student learning.In response to the enthusiastic attention of the China’s government and society to the qualityassurance in engineering education s, the Higher Education Teaching Evaluation Center ofthe Ministry of Education, together with the Beijing University of Aeronautics andAstronautics, and Tsinghua University, have

have become very popular in USA and Canada. They exposestudents to real engineering environments in different countries far from their homeland where differentcultures have survived over centuries and millennia. International internships teach engineering internshow products are envisioned and used differently in different cultures. Conversely, internationalinternships expose students to how different tools are used for the same purpose in different countries,like an American kitchen knife and an Asian Bothi. Giving another example, again from Japan, in the areaof New Production System (NPS), Noboru Kawasaki writes, “A company that has even a shred of doubt inNPS will not succeed. NPS is like a Lotus Sutra, a Buddhist mantra that teaches
